- Purchased a used computer from zenith bbs. What a mistake. Only file
- on 40 meg hard disk (supposed to be 120) is command.com. Cannot get
- through on bbs--locks up after baud rate. I did get through once and
- was asked for user id. Hell, I've got no idea what my user id is, I
- only made one purchase (last one) and I print screened most everything
- I tried my usual pws if thats what they mean by id, and got cut off
- after 2nd try. I was going to log in with an alais and then tell the
- truth in a message to the sysop. But I guess they must drop IDs when
- they ahve your $. I just realized my modem was off hook to zenith the
- whole time I was composing this message. Look out for the hidden costs.
- Buyer be ware. You get < what you pay for.
