Was this just a dream? There were a lot of BBSes using os/2 warp #BBS software in the 90s. I was told this was because it had better multitasking than MS Windows at that time.

@Zerosouls Yes! It's one reason I bought OS/2 3.0 and 4.0, because I was running a #BBS on my only computer at the time. OS/2 was the only generally accessible OS with preemptive multitasking (you had Windows NT, but it was much more expensive, less stable, and less compatible). Native OS/2 versions of key BBS tools such as Maximus, squish, and FrontDoor were readily available, and you could run multiple lines on one PC without investing in expensive BBS software like Wildcat.

@lenaoflune Nice info. I ended up initially buying VBBS 6.14 and it ran really well for me initially. But all the boards in my area seemed go run in os/2 and I always wanted to try it out but never took the leap. Sometimes feel like testing it out in a VM to get a taste of the nostalgia I never had.
