I'll take that on faith (I have no great love for IBM :-) :-) If you want to take another route, find a CP/M machine with a 10 or 20 meg hard disk (Televideo 803h comes to mind, or a Kaypro 10 or .....) and get a copy of PICS. It has more features than you can shake a stick at - messaging, conference areas, up/down loads etc. etc. I talk to one PICS system on a Televideo 803h (that's a 4MHz Z80 for all you 32 bit people out there), and it handles 6 lines currently, and the sysop plans to upgrade to 24. -- dg@lakart.UUCP - David Goodenough +---+ | +-+-+ ....... !harvard!adelie!cfisun!lakart!dg +-+-+ | +---+
