According to the monthly information postings from Gene Spafford, there is
a Unix-PC network available at many sites:

<Unix-PC

<Another such hierarchy is the "unix-pc" distribution.  This consists of
<groups devoted to users of the AT&T Unix-PC.  These groups were
<originated as a mailing list started by three owners of AT&T Unix PCs:
<Gary Smith, David Dalton and Kathy Vincent.  As the list expanded, it
<turned into a newsgroup hierarchy, and more and more sites began to
<carry the groups; hundreds of sites now carry these groups.  To receive
<them, you need to contact a site already getting them; att, gatech,
<mit-eddie, psuvax1, ucsd and ukma are well-known sites getting these
<groups and the admins there may be willing to help find a feed should
<you desire (and ask nicely); uunet also carries these groups. The
<unix-pc groups circulated include:

<unix-pc.bugs		Bug reports, fixes & workarounds.
<unix-pc.general 	General information and discussion.
<unix-pc.sources 	Source code to various programs.
<unix-pc.uucp 		Configuration and management of uucp on Unix-PCs.
<unix-pc.test 		Test group.

If your site cannot get the unix-pc.* groups via regular news, contact the
address below to be added to the mailing list.
