I really need to find all of that ANSI art you guys made in the BBS days so I can respond to this properly.

@phooky @jmjm

Do you still have those ANSI files you made? They've gotta be somewhere.

I wish! I've been looking for them. Unless Dad has an old hard drive in the attic these are gone forever.

@jmjm @rogzilla71 @phooky Dad is here right now, and I asked him what happened to the 6300. Quoth the dad: "I threw it out." "What about the hard drive and floppies?" "I threw them out." "But wh--" "In the trash."

Pour one out for that AT&T 6300 with the upgraded NEC V30 (?) processor.

Wasn't it a PC/AT clone (80286)? I was jealous because I only had a PC/XT clone (8088). I also remember you guys had a Bernoulli Box.

@rogzilla71 @jmjm @phooky It was an 8086 (or 8086 clone), just running at a higher clock speed (internet claims ~7MHz, I remember 10MHz for some reason). Apparently AT&T had very little to do with it other than the sales channel; it was a rebadged Olivetti M24.

They're on ebay, but even at $50 not really worth it:
