Same here. A fellow HAM and friend - he was my right hand in maintaing the
local 2m repeater - happened to be the local InterMail dealer. One day he came
in with a couple of disks and installed InterMail on my 286. He gave me a nice
discount and from then on he was my Boss Node. That was in 1991 or 1992. I
don't think there were any dedicated point setups available then.

Anyway, it was my way of getting to know Fidonet technology and after that
upgrading to full node was a piece of cake.


Cheers, Michiel
