  • 90s group houses?

    Did anyone ever live in a wired-up college group house in the 90s? I'd
    always thought it would have been cool to set up a group house with some
    kind of box to serve web pages, host a shared printer, maybe even set up newsgroups and email for the house.

    I remember running into a house running localtalk for user Macs and an AU/X box hosting the house.

    Of course, you'd need to add an MP3 server to the mix...

    Nowadays, you could do all of that and more with Google accounts, it would have been fun to do something like that before anyone else.
