Yeah, 10 years - I started with an Amiga.  I actually ran a BBS in Accrington using the Amiga and 2 floppy drives! I once also recieved a phone bill for 350 quid, this was caused when I upgraded(?) to a 386 with 40mb hard drive and the mail server filled the hard drive and kept redialling to try again - for days, very scary!  Indeed times have changed - I do enjoy telnetting to some of the die hard BBS's every now and then - and there is still a place in my heart for Tradewars2002!!
