OK, as someone who looooong ago ran a BBS on a 2 drive IIe (eventually 8
drives, then a Sider), I'd say don't do it. Get a 3.5, if for anything to speed
it up.

ALFA III, Prime (what I used)... those will work, and copies are available in
the usual places. GBBS will work also - everything else is too old or needs
more space and processor. Most of the older stuff isn't Y2K compatible of
course. More storage would mean using something a little more modern (and
recommended) ProLine. Why a //c? Use a GS and run METAL. Terry Davis would
probably be the best person to talk to on that, or Brad.
