What were some others?


Lessee, bit of a virtual version of our previous "Remember Calgary When.." thread here... where's my good old trusty copy of Procomm Plus?

- Logical Solutions - computer store in Varsity (across from Troutman's now office). Had a bank of USR 9600HST modems IIRC. I think you had to pay them for access though,
- H.M.S.S - Her Majesty's Secret Service - lots of time spent here. Had some good doors (games as I recall).
- CAL PC
- The Bear Board
- T-80 BBS
- The Batcave BBS
- The Jailhouse
- The Badger's Hole BBS (I used to know the Sysop)
- Total Recall
- The Nighthawk
- Jokerz Wyld
- Wizard's Realm

There's hundreds more - the 80's oil boom meant for a lot of nerdy talent coming to Calgary back then...

Anyone else a Tradewars 2002 addict?

Ahh the days of Quick BBS, Remote Access, PCBoard, BinkleyTerm, D'Bridge and FidoNet. All these young whippersnappers here probably don't even remember command line computing! ;-)
