I used to run Trinity BBS on 2 floppys, then upgraded to CNET when I got a 40MB HDD. I assisted with passing messages through FIDOnet. The gaming was awesome. Shadow of the Beast, It came from the Desert, Lemmings and the list goes on.
Amiga was a great comp. Atari ST was better, of course, but Amiga was all the way up there as a real close runner-up. Although I must say Altered Beast simply looked pimp on Amiga. On Atari it looked washed down and not sexy at all (that was before they found a way to display 4096 colors on the screen instead of the regular 16).

BBS, Fidonet... I haven't seen these words in many years. Fellow sysop here - ran a BBS on a 286 then on a 386 for quite a few years. Fidonet and Sparknet node, UUCP relay, and God knows how many group *HQ's. Good times indeed.
