Just a little note here: unix-pc.all is *NOT* for PC's running Unix.
It's for Unix-pc's.  A Unix-pc is specifically an AT&T 3b1 or 7300
computer, they have 68010 processors and only run Unix.

Please don't encourage Xenix and Microport and whatever-else-comes-out-
this-week PC clone users to post to unix-pc newsgroups; we don't hate
them, but it annoys us and won't do them any good.
