        Both AirPower's BBS and AirPower's email server may be down for
a while for a system upgrade Tuesday and Wednesday.  Below is a message
posted to our BBS users which explains it.
Jim
Folks,
        For the first time in 9+ years of continuous operation,
AirPower MAY be down for an extended period of time for an upgrade of
the operating system.  Then again, if all goes well, maybe not, but I
like to plan for the worst.
        Currently AirPower's network consists of the BBS machine and
email server running on DOS 6.22 with Desqview and Desqview/X as
multi-taskers, another machine running Windows NT Server 4.0, two
Windows 95 file servers, and a WFW file server.  I am going to upgrade
the BBS to Windows NT Server 4.0 also.  This will better enable me to
continue with future Internet related enhancements.  If all goes well
this should only take a few hours, but if you get a no answer for an
extended period of time you'll know there were a few bumps in the road.
Not to worry, if worst comes to worst, I'll go back to the old setup if
need be.
        This upgrade is planned for Tuesday Feb. 17 and/or Wednesday
Feb. 18.  Thanks for your understanding.
