I can remember this when I was on a 14K4 modem in the old days on DOS. You only had BBS boards and the connection was usually made by PC anywhere...


Oh yeah I remember those days very well. I started with a 300 BAUD modem using Fidonet BBS boards. It was a long time before the Internet. They would all connect internationally once a day to update messages that had been sent to them locally.
