Re: [PLUG] DESQView (was mc graphics drawing characters - SOLVED)

Ditto that. I ran a 2-line BBS on a Tandy 1000TX (286) and Desqview way back in... um.... 1991-1992-ish?

It's funny this came up, because I've been working on building a sort of computer "museum." I installed DOS 6.22 and WFW on a VM on my ESXi server, along with a bunch of old BBS software, doors, and whatnot. It's pretty cool to play with. All I need is a hardware modem and I'll be all set.

Speaking of BBSes, has anyone seen the BBS Documentary? Talk about a walk down memory lane!

+1

I had DESQView running in dos/4.0 two Oblivion/2 sessions to support my
dual-line BBS :) 386/16sx WITH 4mb ram upgrade.
