The photo on the right is of the first computer that ran Deadly Sins BBS.
It was a Tandy 1000HD (XT with a 10 meg hard drive). Later, I upgraded to
a 20 meg external hard drive that didn't work (special thanks to Al James)
and then I moved on to a external 40 meg drive.
As you can imagine running with a 10-40 meg hard drive would lead to space problems.
So after awhile, we converted all of our ZIP files to ARJ files (to save space)
and eventually we upgraded to a 386. In later years, we upgraded the system to
a 486 running OS/2, we added a two Pioneer-DRM400X CDROM changers (total of
8 CDROM drives) and we switched software from running QuickBBS to Remote
Access and then (finally) to ProBoard.
Here is a random collection of screenshots taken from Deadly Sins BBS during the last
few months of operation. Click on a thumbnail to view the full screenshot. Older
shots will be added soon!
