You can dial up direct to 408 298-8646. You can autoregister for free. 

The board operates using First Class client software on the Mac and Windows
platforms. There are now settings files for both Mac and Windows, that have
been fully customized with original graphics which are unlike any service you
are likely to have come across. We have a lot of new material that we didn't
have a few months ago, and about 2000 users. (You can access it in VT-100
mode too, but it is less visually exciting.  Log in with the password WIN and
UserID WIN to download the two software files (client and settings) located
in the System Info area. Then log off and dial in again with these files and
a new password &ID to establish a free account.

We do not yet have telnet and ftp access, but are looking at ways to do so.

Thanks for your interest.
