 Da> Every "corporate" BBS I ever logged into was just stock WildCat or
 Da> MajorBBS. Later, they became stock Worldgroup.

From what I remember, MajorBBS had some products & software features to enable easily having a bunch of phone lines for a dialup BBS.  I had used some MajorBBS boards in my area in the early 90s that had a bunch of phone lines, with active multi-node chat rooms.  I remember seeing some hardware they offered that allowed a lot more serial ports than were usually offered on a PC..  From what I remember, a typical IBM-compatible PC had bulit-in support for up to 4 serial ports (and a couple of them shared IRQs, from what I remember, so if you wanted to use all 4 simulteneously, you had to re-configure their IRQs).  But I recall seeing that the company that made MajorBBS offered some hardware that allowed a lot more serial ports, and their MajorBBS software naturally supported that.  I'm not sure how the hardware accomplished that, since typically there were limited IRQs available.
