Yes, not even a spam post in several months, but yet I still stay
subscribed.
I see Clock and Milt over in c.s.a.advocacy occasionally antagonizing
Terry (but then, its sooooo easy to do).
Anybody still snooping around this old shack?

they say about your enemies. (Kidding, have much love for Amiga) Is this even
an Amiga board? State of usenet these days makes me ask.

Just got my board linked up, only because I'm an Atari guy, and you know what
they say about your enemies. (Kidding, have much love for Amiga) Is this even
an Amiga board? State of usenet these days makes me ask.

my feed only because, why the hell not? Its not like its taking up any
space...Do I expect anything topical anymore? Nah, not really. CNet BBs,
much like the Amiga, is a dead relic. A Nostalgia piece... in fact in
the past several months I picked up an Amiga 3000, an Amiga 2000 and an
Amiga 2500 all in working order. One of them even has an old BBS on it.
It was the the BBS for the Amiga users group in Madison WI. called The
Daily Planet.

back in the day. I remember when I first got my Amiga, there were only
a couple Amiga BBS' in Milwaukee, so I branched out a bit occasionally.

CNet could run over the Internet, natively even. I'm not sure any other
Amiga BBSes could do so, though I think there was a serial device that
could be configured to run over an IP, it was how we used to do it with
CNet before the 4.x series added it. Just don't ask me what it was
called, perhaps something like telser.device? That seems to ring a bell,
for some reason.
