[alt.bbs] BBS comparison input wanted.

Tell me what you think of these BBS packages.  If there is sufficient
interest, I will post a summary to alt.bbs.  I am looking a BBS that
will run on an MSDOS machine, will allow menu sets based on user level
or seperate flag (e.g. straight ASCII for Apple II users and color ANSI
for IBM users), and easy to access doors such that a keyword indexed
database could be easily referenced.

                  ALL COMMENTS ARE SOLICITED!!!
