Lol funny brings back some memories, one of my good friends ran a bbs from home back in 1981 and we had connections in new York LA and we where doing a lot of trading and had one of the largest apple software collection around Quebec, but we did not sell only did it ias a hobby and did we get in trouble with the law,,yeah we went a bit to far so when I turned 18 we shut down operation, got off easy with the parents , my father was a scientist and built his own computers as a hobby and I think there was some pride in him, in a heavy German accent,” If he is going to get in trouble ,dahh it is vmuch better with computers”
But I look back man was it fun and full of adventures and we had to take the bus to meet people that took us all over the place, really cool for a kid, well you could do that back then not like these days, and the parents weren’t really worried, just keep a quarter in your pockedt and make a phone call and we will come and get you.” Don’t worry mom and dad I don’t need money for the phone I can crack it “lol
