i've been running my twgs w/32 cache option cont on bbs (24hrs /day) since
jan
of 1991...the speed it has been set at since it has been put up was 14.75

it has worked flawlessly...i do have it in a // gs upgrade kit in a //
case....so maybe
that takes less power..i also have the powersupply outside of the case
plugged in
fromt the back and the cover off...and a system saver on the side running as
well
maybe heat is the problem..anyway i set it at that as an experiment and it
never
bombed...and has worked since

if you want to telnet into my old apple // bbs pkgs (fv/metal and tpro RPG)
i have them
set up as doors off my main bbs from main bbs main menu...you can telnet in
and instant
validation to telnet..also have free games/files/dma remote
games/tw2002/l.o.r.d. etc

whatever...the only apple // bbs's accessable via telnet and the www that i
know of
check them out
