Subject: Altos 580, BBS's.
[munch]
I have "inherited" an Altos 580. For those of you with short memories,
this is a 4-user MP/M-II system circa 1983. It has a 10 megabyte hard
drive, and is just sitting there, doing nothing but collecting dust
(along with my ultra-modern Hazeltine terminal, which I similarly
aquired). I've used the machine a little, and it's quite a neat
machine, but I'm afraid it's a little outdated alongside of the Amiga
on the next desk.
My question: Is there a BBS program that can be used with this
machine? I am aquainted with RCP/M and CBBS, but the only versions
I've ever seen ran on CP/M 2.2 systems... are there MP/M versions?
Seems a shame, really... can run a quite adequate BBS with a 10 meg
drive.
