The first implemntation of RIP I saw was on Searchlight BBS. I also had a nice implementation of it running the last commerical version of PCboard. We experimented with it running a multi line dating system with PCBoard and Excalibur BBS as the web was coming on line.
I had 12 lines into my house at one point as well as an ISDN line. You didnt have to worry about processors at first. The checks came in the mail and then we started processing with a fucking flower company... remember Telefloral?
My favorite Mustang Software App was an offline reader called SLMR. Silly Little Mail Reader. Do you remember it?

Gonzo,
I remember all of that mano, good times
Canadians?? Mustang was all out of bakersfield, ca. A good friend used to write door games for wildcat and other, Mike Jordan, and his friend Rusty Johnson.
Yeh, Chuck lives down the road a few miles from us, My Pops does some deck and other work for him once in a while. Smart fellow there.
Slmr I used a couple of times, but not much.. For system mail and groups we finally went to D-bridge, and worked like a charm.
I had a teleflora merch. acct up until like 3 yrs ago
I also remember when Excal came out, I thought it was cool as shit. We ran worldgroup also on Major bbs and it was cool too.
