In 1985, Tim Stryker developed the Model 16 multimodem card, which allowed for up to 16 1200-baud modems on one ISA PC card. And, to demonstrate the model 16 and the GSBL, Tim developed The Major BBS v1.0. Later in the year, Galacticomm released partial source code and a non-hardware version of The Major BBS v2.2 as shareware to demonstrate the ‘behind the scenes' operation of the system. In 1987, the BBS' version 4.0 was released as a full commercial product. That year, the first ISV products started development.In 1988 the Major BBS version 5.0 & the Galactibox released. The Galactibox was a 16-slot ISA chassis that connected via a cable to an ISA interface card into a PC. Up to four Galactiboxes could be connected to a single PC, allowing 256 connections via Dial-up, X.25, Network and Telnet.In 1992, Galacticomm released version 6.0 of the software, which included protected mode support that allowed systems to break the 640K barrier, and use up to 16Mb of memory (much to the relief of operators of very large systems). In 1995, the next major version of the flagship was released, calling itself Worldgroup instead of The Major BBS.in 1997, Galacticomm released version 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2 of Worldgroup, this version supported Windows 32bit and opened a new range of options for users and developers.In 1999, Galacticomm released its final version with Worldgroup version 3.3 and after that the company was closed.Today a new future is in front of this great name Galacticomm and we plan to make the name and its products great again.
