I'm looking for some decent multi user BBS software, I'm having a very
hard time finding any in the DOS world.  The only thing I have found
so far that I would be happy with is TBBS, but that is way out of my
price range.   I have seen DLX, GALACTICOM, and FALKEN, all of them
lack in some form or another.  Does any one know of anything else I
could look at?   Maybe even something that runs under MINIX or 
Coherent? Or any other low cost operating system?  
  
I am NOT! interested in software that requires something like Desqview
to do its multi stuff.
  
Failing that, I am capable of writing my own BBS code, except I don't
want to get into the time slicing and serial i/o, buffering, etc...
Does any one know if that stuff exists in a library anywhere?
Maybe I'll get ambitious.
