Maybe not quite that old school.... lol. However, accessing the
newsgroup itself not through Google but an actual newsgroup client like
XNews.

However, that is an interesting idea. I have Synchronet BBS which is
designed to support 250 users via Telnet.

I have my own C-128 and still a C-128DCR but that is not likely not
going to just hand off to anyone any time soon. However, I suppose there
is still some C-128 computers still out in the wild.

If you are lucky, and get your money out, you should be able to get one
that is in reasonable working order.

Good Luck, though.
