FORD") Newsgroups: comp.sys.apple Subject: Apple BBS Message-ID: <8805231510.aa24523@SMOKE.BRL.ARPA> Date: 23 May 88 19:58:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Reply-To: "MAJ ERIC S. FORD" Organization: The Internet Lines: 16 I just got back to reviewing my mail and found several requests to pass along the 1-800 number to sign up as a beta tester for the Apple BBS I mentioned earlier. A few postings later I discovered someone was kind enough to pick up the slack for me and has already posted it...thanks. One more note, it seems that the beta test package comes with the necessary software to call up the BBS since NO other program will work with it. My question regarding this should be obvious...will the final version also require this unique software (which those of us already happy with our other programs would now have to buy) or will the end item support other telecomm packages? If the former turns out to be the case (unique software required) I for one hope the idea dies a miserable death! Eric ------
