So anyone met there wife/husband over a Bulletin Board System? This is true. Having bought an Amiga I loaned my trusty C128 machine to a woman friend I was somewhat involved with. She was stuck in the house a lot and couldn't get out so she needed some way to meet people and the BB's seemed a good way to do that. While on a system she met this guy. One thing led to another. E-Mail became phone calls (which was expensive since he lived 2000 miles away), they had a visit and were soon after, married. She then moved back with him to Canada where they are happily married, have a new baby and are still paying off the phone and Email bills..... The C128? It was their wedding present.
