   On VICE?   
      
   Not to sure about,  the problem with VICE and C-Net / IMAGE BBS, is storage!   
   These are HUGE programs, and VICE does not support REL files in anything by   
   NATIVE drive emulation.  Which means you would be limmited to however many 81   
   drives you can emulate!  You might be able to get away with using an X-1541   
   type cable and a CMD HD clone, but I do not have any experience with this, so I   
    can not say for sure if it works.   
      
   If you are going to spend the money on a CMD Hard Drive clone, might as well   
   just get true hardware, a Swiftlink clone, and use a terminal server solution   
   on a PC, or a dedicated network device such as MRV or One Port.
