The famous Scoopex intro. Notice how the logo is antialiased? Yeah, that’s what I’m talking about! That’s attention to detail.

What a classic Amiga intro, one that screams “Amigaaa!!!” all the way from the ’90’s. Those were such damn good times, we were hopeful for the future and for a while it looked like the future 20 years from then would be grand. The society went to toilet instead.

Sometimes a logo, starfield, beautiful sinescroll and tune is all you need. Simple. Classic. Love it.

No, Boiler Room was never really a ‘top tier’ BBS from memory 😛

There are torrents of that BBS and another one from Fortress BBS in Belgium or Boondocks in Netherlands which have more files that were towards the later part of the scene. You could also look for the Bamiga Sector One backup which is a real treasure trove for early scene stuff but it’s all disk image based as there were no (affordable) harddrives. I believe all of them are on EAB’s FTP server…

He was in GOD for a while; never a super fast BBS as mentioned below. Just sysop was a very nice guy. BBS was 2 nodes and was online for a LONG time.
