Welcome to The Livewire Store Ver. 2.0!
The purpose for The Livewire Store is to allow callers the option to
buy products that are offered by the individual system operators. Any of
the products for sale within this door are the complete responsibility of
the system operator to deliver to you.
Another great option is to allow a caller to download a product and
price list from a particular department without getting a complete product
list. Ex: If you want the product list from a Book Dept., then you will only
get that list when you download from that department.
Should you want all the product list, then you have to visit each and
every department to download each of the product list. Incidentally, all the
list are encoded with the name and address to mail the order to. Usually the
sysop of the board displaying The Livewire Store.

enter a number corresponding to the Department you wish to visit.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
