      @MG @hardmous Looks like that BBS might have been built with Mystic. Interesting.

      @MG @hardmous What was there first common application with default colour-scheme of white text on blue background? WordPerfect? It couldn't have been earlier than 1981 when CGA came out for the IBM PC.

         @papa @hardmous WP 5.1 was released in 1989, I think the first use of the color scheme appeared in in 1982 on the C-64. Start up Screen was White Text and Blue Background.
