That BBS grew very, very fast, backed by venture capital, and quickly became a major ISP - national level, one of the first in the country. It was perfect timing, just as the commercial Internet was taking off. I know they used a lot of Cisco, and other enterprise suppliers. Our BBS, on the other hand, remained small (small town). The BBS ran half a dozen Sportsters on 2 computers and OS/2. Later, we also became a small ISP, providing dial-up access with Windows NT 3.51, an EISA DigiBoard multiserial and about 16 Boca modems. The Couriers were used for some dedicated point-to-point lines, with FreeBSD and KA9Q.
