That is discussion of binaries posted here, binaries which might be here in the future, such as things on ftp, and discussion of the group itself, like renaming, archivers, etc. Questions about which mouse to use, is DOS as good as OS/2, etc, are not reasonable here. Not are questions on who makes a good motherboard, or bugs in commercial software. I don't usually say anything unless the posting is seriously off topic, because it's only a problem when no thought is given to the group. Oh yes, FOR SALE is *always* wrong in every group except misc.forsale. -- bill davidsen - davidsen@sixhub.uucp (uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen) sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX moderator of comp.binaries.ibm.pc and 80386 mailing list "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
