 What does everyone think of the new Start? I cancelled my
ANTIC subscription; there are many NEWSLETTERS out there that
are better 8-bit sourced than the new START. If the magazine
keeps getting thinner at the rate it has been, then the 8-bit
section should be gone completely in several more months.

 I am interested in putting up Usenet messages on my Atari 8-bit
BBS; I already have Delphi, GEnie, and Compuserve messages
online for those who don't have access to these services. I was
wondering what the easiest way to write a viewer for Usenet
messages would be. I am just learning the system -- is there a
way to view 'New' messages without pauses between them? What I
really need is a way to capture the messages without pauses
between individual posts.

 Does anyone out there have any old Corvus equipment? Anyone
running a BBS with Carina 1 anymore?
