Blast from the past - Excelsus! BBS

By weldon - Posted on July 17th, 2008

oh my, out of boredom, I searched Yahoo! for Excelsus! BBS and found someone mentioned it in forum in 2003!

Excelsus BBS ran on an Atari 520STfm and then an Atari 1040STf from 1988-1992. 1st only on single sided, 360K 3.5" floppy (BBS software AND data!) then ended up on a 50MB hard disk. It was actually one of the 1st (maybe THE 1st) BBS in Hampton Roads, Virginia to have blazing fast 2400baud access. Only had 1 phone line the entire time.
