Oakton, Virginia, August 4, 1997:
After seven years and well over a million calls, the OS/2 Shareware BBS has
moved from Fairfax, Virginia to Oakton, Virginia. As luck would have it, even
though the move was only 2.5 miles away we had to change phone numbers.
Effective immediately, the new phone number for the OS/2 Shareware BBS is:
703-242-4482
This one number is used for both subscribers and non-subscribers alike.
Even if you don't plan to call the BBS soon, please check your dialing
directory and anywhere else you store phone numbers and make sure that you
record the new number overtop of the old one. Service to the old numbers will
be disconnected soon and I'd hate to be the person who gets the old BBS
numbers -- let's try to minimize the number of modem calls going to the old
number and waking up some unsuspecting soul.
Of course, the BBS is still accessible through all the same Internet
addresses:
telnet://bbs.os2bbs.com (to access the BBS)
and
http://www.os2bbs.com (through the web)

Online since March 1990, the OS/2 Shareware BBS is home to 16,200 OS/2 files
totalling over 4.6 GB. Freely available to everyone over multiple phone lines
and telnet sessions. Subscriptions help keep the service online through its
T1 connection and give users access to the file collection through the web.
