  • Amstrad PPC512 and BBS

    From Alastair Frankland@1:124/5016 to All on Sun Aug 10 13:53:13 2025
    Hi all! Just to report some success running Mirror II software on Amstrad PPC512 with a Hayes modem. 2400 to 9600 seems acceptable. ANSI also looking good. The software is affordable which is more than I can say for a certain Amiga brand out there. The Amstrad seems more compatible with modern BBS than the Amiga. Take care!

    Hi, Alastair.

    Hi all! Just to report some success running Mirror II software on Amstrad PPC512 with a Hayes modem. 2400 to 9600 seems acceptable. ANSI also looking good.

    That sounds like a fun / unusual setup - is there a story behind it?

    Off to look up the PPC512 now :)
