That's reqlly intriguing. One of the reasons I'm running a dedicated BBS box is
that I'm leery of making my box (with all my personal data) on it available via
the internet.

With the BBS in a VM, I could isolate the BBS to its own sandbox and lock it
down hard - give it virtually (no pun intended) access to the host box.
