    A sysop I know recently built a board with RIP and had a Dosbox version of RipTerm in the downloads section for users to experience it. I think the BBS was Proboard. Anyhow, he even had RIP music too. He recently passed he was a Mystic sysop who lived in a trailer in Fla. He was a great fiddle player too. I can't remember his name but he helped me out with some nasty dropfiles once...

    Yes! That was Hawk, he ran a fleet of BBSes. His BBSes are still up and being run by M00P from Slime City. You can find all of his BBSes on the telnet guide:

    Black Flag
    Black Tower
    Piranha
    Acid Underground

    And many more ..

    A true BBS Legend.

    Yeah that be he! I parted ways with him when he yelled at me for asking him a simple question. He told me I was ignorant. Being a psych nurse, I came to the conclusion that he was angry and pissed off at the world so I decided to let him be....

    RIP Hawk Hubbard!

    Can't DosBox work on Mac? I know that Hawk Hubbard had a DosBox/Ripterm program ready to go in his downloads on his Searchlight BBS
