  1. it only took 25 years of checking ebay daily, but it finally arrived: the retail edition of FirstClass BBS server + client for the macintosh

    it's big, it's heavy, and it's loaded with documentation. among the diskettes, you'll notice the "license disk" which is a key disk/dongle for running the server. it decides how many users can dial-in, or connect over appletalk

    the best part was that it includes a pamphlet with their price list as of 1995. just look at those eyewatering prices: $35000 USD for 1000 users 😭

    i'm excited to see what kind of license the previous owner bought (e.g. the max# of users they were able to afford).
