I only ran Warp 3 Connect. The motherboard and hard drive in the PC went

I've been running my BBS since late '93/early '94... OS/2 was and still is the
best multi-tasker of DOS programs. The second would have to be Desqview. 

These days everything here runs on a Windows server system. Unfortunately it 
has to run on the physical hardware its on. I still have a dialup modem line 
which I do not wish to part with. This is "the last" home server I'm running. 
I have enough spare parts for it but if and when it finally dies; thats all.
