SYSOP | Bob Newell
SOFTWARE | aDBBS
COMMENTS | "GobblerNet was the very last system in Bismarck, and
| when it closed down, the era ended forever in central
| North Dakota. It was a Linux-based BBS. In those days
| that was pretty rare. The system runs again, by the way,
| as ChungKuo BBS, in my current Santa Fe, New Mexico
| location, as a telnet only system: telnet://chungkuo.org

COMMENTS | "The Gamer's Guild ran on a Tandy 1000TL with 768k of RAM
| and a 40MB Hard Drive with MS-DOS and RemoteAccess BBS
| software. Anderson's Toolshed ran on a beefier Homebrew
| 386DX-40 with 8MB of RAM and a 250MB Hard Drive, with MS-
| DOS and MajorBBS. The Gamer's Guild was a single node BBS
| dedicated to online games. I think the most available at
| one time was around 110. Anderson's Toolshed was a dual
| node BBS and focused on the darker side of life,
| forbidden subjects, conspiracy theories, UFO's, bigfoot,
| etc. and had a rather large adult section. It also had
| around 15 online games available." - Joe Thorson
