Sn> My latest video turned out a bit longer - almost feature-length! So
Sn> grab some snacks... Together, we'll rebuild the 40-year-old C64 BBS
Sn> Snobsoft from the ground up in the living room, where I have a better
Sn> filming setup, showing every last detail like never before. The living
Sn> room also provides the perfect setting to demonstrate when Snobsoft
Sn> user Droidmike attempts to call from Ohio, USA, to Hamburg, Germany,
Sn> using a C64 dial-up connection - testing whether such an old-school
Sn> 4,000-mile phone link can still work in today's space-age fiber-optic
Sn> VoIP world. Mikey is also filming on his end in the USA, inviting you
Sn> into his retro room in Ohio to showcase the wild hardware he uses for
Sn> this experiment. Among other things, you'll get to see his 'Paper
Sn> Terminal,' which he runs alongside his Commodore 1650 modem.

What a great video! I started modem use AFTER I sold my C64. I started
within the IBM frame, but this was so interesting! Great job to both of
you.
Hats off to you for keeping SS going.
Thank you for this interesting content!
Vielen Dank!
