Everything about Atari Message Information System
BBS software package
The Atari Message Information System (AMIS) was one of the first BBS software packages available for the Atari 8-bit computers. It was known to crash often and could not be left unattended for more than a few days. The AUTORUN.SYS file which contained the modem handler was at cause. Versions of the AMIS BBS were modified with the modem handler supplied with the Atari XM301 modem and was deemed much more stable. Wikipedia →
