Description of BBS

Resurrecting my BBS from the early 1980's - the Live Wire BBS lives again! In 1983 I wrote my own BBS program on my VIC-20 and ran a very successful board in the Toronto area. Now, over 40 years later, I am doing it again! This BBS runs on a VIC-20 and is formatted to look correct on VIC-20 screens. It will also work on C64 and C128 clients.

Location
Toronto/ON/Canada
