   it was ahead of it's time.   
   no one else could touch it back then for performance.   
   it was fast.   
   you could do over 128 lines on a 386 computer with 16 megs of ram.   
   while most everyone else was multinode, it was multiline.   
   for a multinode bbs to even come close to a mbbs system you needed   
   a huge room of computers on a fast network, like netware or lantastic.   
   it's only even near competitor was Tbbs, and they are dead too.   
   and they cost about the same also.   
   Mbbs and Tbbs had special games none of the multinode systems had.   
   shall I go on?
