I always had crappy systems. Dr. Strangelove, sysop of Just Say Yes, had
a 386/33 with 8 megs of RAM, and he was able to run 2 dialup
Searchlight nodes plus a local node, with enough left over to run his
DOS apps. I was impressed.

I recall seeing him chatting with 2 callers at once. Pretty impressive
juggling skills for when we were all single-tasking...
