The APPLE Users Group of El Paso, TX sponsors an RBBS on a NorthStar
Hard Disk CP/M system running TSS/C (certainly a contradiction in
terms). The system has been on a hiatus since it was converted back
in early January, but is now back up with even more available space
than ever - 6 2MByte logical disk drives for a total of 12MBytes.
To kick it off, I have loaded about half the system already with 60
.LBR files (5698K) of SQueezed files downloaded from MC and other
sources over the past two years or so. All the files are up-to-date
as of yesterday, and include the latest collection of ZCPR2 files
(except the SYSLIB set), and MODEM 705 (absolutely the last version of
MODEM 7 I will ever download), and take up most of the B:, C:, and D:
drives. Both LDIR and LMODEM (LU-MODEM) are available to help you
make selective downloads if you do not wish to download an entire .LBR
file using XMODEM.
The system will be up 24-hours a day, seven days a week, and presently
supports only 110 and 300 baud, with a PMMI to be installed "soon".
The number is 915-533-2202, no ringback. Wade through the RBBS and
into CP/M and have at it!
This message is also to serve as notice that I am rescinding the offer
I made last May to supply this set of files to anyone who sends me a
package of NorthStar Quad disks and return postage. For those who
send me their disks some time ago, this same collection will be out in
the mail in a couple of days.
