Dear Sysop, If you are thinking of joining MegNET thank you for taking the time to look over this package. MegNET is a different type of net because it uses subjects that the average computer hobbiest might talk about in a party setting. Our conferences fill only one screen (36 conferences) so callers can see all the conferences in one glance. I took everything that was wrong with echo mail and fixed it. Even this packet is friendly and informative unlike the others. Long online time downloading large packets of messages no one will read is now a thing of the past. We also have a special intro screen for each conference and menu so people know they are in a MegNET conference. I have drawn all the PICS for you and you can look them over. A few of our conferences are slow but these will be renamed as needed. We use QWK packets for our mail so software is all your choice unlike that other net. No front door is needed for our net. MegNET is now in an overdrive mode with new systems coming online almost everyday this month. We are now in 10 states with 29 systems. If you think this is small give me a few more months. Right now MegNET is only in the USA but this looks like it is going to change any minute. See ECHOEN13.TXT found in this packet to learn about echo mail. MEGPICS.ZIP -- INTRO pictures,LOGOs and AUTO Menu NODE.LST -- List of MegNET systems MNCN.TXT -- Conference discriptions MEGINFO.TXT -- This file MEGNET.REQ -- Who can join MEGNET.HST -- MegNET History ECHOEN13.TXT -- How echo mail works I hope you will consider MegNET..........Drop by Money Talks BBS at 201-998-7337 and just put I want to join MegNET in one of the answers and I will give you access. A Voice call at (201)991-6659 will be even quicker. I am home 95% of the time so just start talking at the beep and I will pick up. But please remember about the time zones I have missed a few calls because of this. I don't return long distance phone calls anymore sorry.... John "MegNET" Kleinbauer
