Allen,
Any chance of connecting your ALLRAM BBS on the Ardunio via telnet to the
internet at least temporarily with a temporary password so we can have a
little sample see of your work?  I think it is just so cool what you are
doing!
Kip

Tonight, I got the rest of the BBS running on the Arduino -- working
userlog, chat mode, and message board. Unfortunately, even after moving all
the static strings and such to Flash memory, I still only had room (in it's
current form) to hold a few users and a few messages of only a few lines
each. Just enough to see it work, but not enough to be useful. And I expect
Ethernet support will be completely out -- I expect the networking code to
take up more RAM than I have to spare.

However, between running *ALL RAM* from an emulated cassette in XRoar, and
the version in the Arduino, I have had much fun the past two evenings --
stepping back THIRTY YEARS.

I have continued writing about it here:
