added more rooms:

see sig for link; I've added the following rooms to rtdos.com/chat:

650X - for discussion about 6502 & 6510 and compatible systems not otherwise
listed.

680X - for discussion about 6803 & 6809 and compatible systems not otherwise
listed.

68K - for discussion of 680x0 and compatible systems not otherwise listed.

80x86 - for discussion of all non ms dos (or pc dos) / ms windows 80x86
systems

Z80 and Z88 - for discussion of any system that uses a Z80 or Z88 processor

GEM - atari and some intel based PC's used this OS

GEOS - C64 / 128 and some intel based PC's used this OS

OS2 - IBM's (at request)

as I've stated before, registration is *NOT* required unless you want to
reserve your username; all unregistered usernames expire after 8 minutes of
non use and are deleted; all registered usernames expire after 31 days of
non use and are deleted (meaning you'd have to log on at least once a month
otherwise you may have to re-register). hopefully I've been able to cover
*ALL* classic retro systems. granted I may be spread a little thin by doing
this, but finding places on the internet either for information or to
converse or to get information or to simply chat and reminisce is by and far
getting more and more difficult. I am not here to compete with any
established site or method or...but rather to add what I can and do what I
can to and for the classic systems community.

I am going to be adding functions later (to the chat) that are similiar to
what you could do or used to do with Delphi, Genie, and probably Compuserve.
Instead of just bringing back the classics, why not also bring back the way
we used to do things (life was much simplier back then, wasn't it?) as well?
