Mainly just different configurations in the Preferences, though in 
one I had the address book set up with a small mailing list for email. 

Way back when, I had one set up for no compression on the ZIP files 
for one specific BBS which wasn't compatible with PKZIP v2.04. 

That was before I learned I could have done the same thing under: 

Preferences
 Packet Preference Override
  File and String Preferences
   Compress Reply Cmd   C:\BW\PKZIP.EXE -e0 {at}F {at}I

This was well before the Y2K bug. 
Now I'd have to substitute a modified BWREPFIX batch file command.

I think that was back when I was using a 500meg HD.
