It was also great for a single-node BBS. A friend only had one PC and couldn't do anything while his BBS was up so I recommended OS/2 to him. It worked great. I suppose he probably still had to take his BBS down to dial out to other BBSes.
- gwbas1c 4y agoI remember reading about running a BBS under OS/2. By the time I ran my own BBS, I was able to just run it on Windows 95/98, minimized. It drove my Dad nuts to constantly have it in the taskbar, so so bought me an older computer to run mine. I think I ran it under Windows 3.1 so I could log in without needing to take it offline. I ran it that way until the summer of 1999 when I went to college. (And by that time very few people called dial-ups.)
