Many years ago when the internet was still a little kid, I used to run a BBS in Houston, TX called the 1701-D USS Enterprise.
What started off as a demon dialer program on my Texas Instruments 99/4A computer eventually became
the core of my own BBS program. In those days 40 columns ruled, as did Apple ][ computers, so I gave my
system the look and feel of the AppleWorks BBS software (although all programming was done by my own hand).
The whole BBS thing had completely hooked me back in 1983 when 300 baud reigned supreme and 1200 baud was
totally blazing fast (but expensive as hell). As technology eventually progressed,
I upgraded my modem to 2400 bps modem and switched to
T.A.G. BBS Software using a Texas Instruments Business Pro (an XT compatible machine).
There were no search engines back then, only a BBS list maintained by Judy Scheltema and then later by
the Atomic Cafe BBS. Being ever so clever, I named my BBS 1701-D USS Enterprise BBS because numerical
BBS names were listed before all others; however, popularity was mine not just because I was on the top of the list.
It was during
this period of time that a user on my BBS named Hotdogger began writing fantastic MOD files.
For the novices out there, MOD files are music modules which contain instrument samples and song patterns. The format
originated on the Amiga computer but eventually PC users wrote their own MOD players and MOD editing programs.
Hotdogger uploaded his MOD releases to my system using his MOD writer pseudonym Youthenasia and
was always very kind in crediting my BBS as the home of Youthenasia. The phone number to my BBS was in the
instrument list so I never had a problem getting people to call my system. Even though I eventually took
down my BBS in 1994, the MOD files that Youthenasia had written have kept my phone line ringing
even to this day. I'm glad I don't have call waiting on that line or else I'd be constantly kicked off the internet.
Enjoy these selected downloads. In the era of MP3s, the MOD file is probably endangered. But they're still
a lot of fun so don't overlook them.
