+bf2k+ Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 the title says it all. I suspect you'll have a tough time finding a BBS program that will run in 16k. Is there enough memory run a disk drive on a 400? All of the newest BBS programs (AFAIK) run under SpartaDOS 3 or higher so that is probably another stumbling block. You could try an OLD version of A.M.I.S. with DOS 2 and see if you can trim out some stuff to get it small enough. Or you could always write your own...

Chris Strong Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 ...or you could just install the Atari upgrade kit and take it to 48K. I did that on a number of 400's that I was using for control projects. I just checked and I can't see them on B&C's website, but you might write Bruce and ask. Otherwise, check Best.
