from ANTIC The Atari 8-bit Podcast
Kris Meier, CompuTalk BBS sysop Kris Meier was sysop of CompuTalk BBS, a popular six-line BBS based in Texas that ran off off six Atari 800 computers. In this interview, I read from the article "CompuTalk: Texas-Sized BBS" by Gregg Pearlman, which ran in the August 1987 issue of Antic magazine. This interview took place on October 6, 2016. In it, we discuss Tom Hudson, whom I previously interviewed. "What? An Atari computer did this? Yeah. An Atari computer did this."
