        There is a program called PowerBBS which I've downloaded from 
Canada Remote Systems (416)798-7730 but it has some strange problems with 
the install routines, so it discouraged me. The reason I downloaded it in 
the first place was that it IS a native Windows app. If there is a new 
version around (I havn't looked) it may be of interest to you and others.

Does anyone, while we're on the subject, know of an OS/2 bbs program 
other than Maximus?
