Hello everyone,

I'm Steve from Fort Worth, TX. I guess I was getting a bit nostalgic and was wanting to check out some BBS systems that still were around. My first computer was a TRS-80 Model 4 that my dad had brought home from work. I eventually worked my way to a Commodore 64. 300 baud ruled the world for a while. I remember those days fondly. I remember later on when I first got a 14.4 modem my friends called me lightning. lol. Anyway, I was just wanting to say hello.

Hiya neighbor, I'm in Waco just south of you, and I visit Ft. Worth often. I also broke into computers on a TRS-80, but a Color Computer 2 then later a Coco 3. I loved those old systems, I still have both in my closet somewhere. Welcome back to the group! There are several boards local to you, i'm slowly building mine here in Waco, Tx as well, but it's not quite ready to throw out there yet. Any other techie hobbies?

Welcome back! I started out BBSin on an XT with an internal 2400 that was
only really reliable at 1200 until I figured the settings out. Later got a 386-40 and a Supra v.32bis modem.

Before BBSing, I used a TI-99/4A for several years. When I first heard the 2400 baud modem making its noises over the phone line, it reminded me some
of the noises I would hear when loading a program from casette on the TI. :)
