- HI.
-
- I think there is too much emphasis put on making all BBS's GUI. The beauty of
- the VT100 ansi interface is that ANYBODY can get on, regardless of what
- hardware they're running. If we need machines with 40mhz processors and 10meg
- RAM just to communicate, we're not helping anybody except Apple, IBM,
- Microsoft, and so on.
