Summary: Let's figure this out Message-ID: <1990Dec8.212902.12815@isis.cs.du.edu> Date: 8 Dec 90 21:29:02 GMT References: <11686@alice.att.com> Reply-To: bscott@isis.UUCP (Ben Scott) Organization: The Raster Image Lines: 29 I hereby humbly submit my suggestion to create a new group - Let's entitle it comp.debate.3b1or7300orunixpc... (more) Seriously, speaking as a soon-to-be user of a 7300, who has no other experience with any other AT&T product besides the phone system, I would like to see SOMETHING happen. I'll let you guys hammer out the details, but at this public-access Usenet site which has a direct Internet link to uunet we don't get any unix-pc groups. I only have access to this group, comp.sys.att, at present. When I get that 7300 and when this system gets some new disks to alleviate space problems, my sysadmin has promised me he'll bring them in, but I think the fact that we don't have them now (and this system, while open to the public, is the feed for the entire University of Denver computer net where News and Internet access is concerned) says something about distribution problems. I'll probably vote yes on just about any proposal, so long as it helps to separate the 3B1/7300 traffic from the other AT&T systems. I don't think a separate UnixPC source group is really vital, but it would be nice to have. (I'm still excited that there's a version of Tetris for it... can't wait to get my new toy) . <<<>>> -- |Ben Scott, professional goof-off and consultant at The Raster Image, Denver| |FIDO point address 1:104/421.2, bscott@isis.cs.du.edu, or BBS (303)424-9831| |"Spent 4 hours burying the cat!"
