8BBS Archive P1V1

Scans of message board and session dumps from the 8BBS bulletin board system. 8BBS ran from 1980 to 1982 in the SF Bay area of California and was one of the earliest publicly accessible message boards. In this relatively short run it was host to many notorious characters of the early hacking and phone phreaking scenes. This is Part 1, Version 1 - another "part" will be released if more logs are found. If Part 1 is re-processed (to improve readability or OCR) it will be released as P1V2. More background info on the print-outs can be found here or here
