Nah, we've seen this flame before.  Truth be known, most of the 80% figure
represents Xenix systems.  Xenix has its own newsgroup.  But hey, it's OK--
as the saying goes, "A cheap shot is a terrible thing to waste!"

Perhaps only ISC users are doing anything sophisticated or interesting
with their systems!  (See, I'll take the cheap shot when it's offered.:-)

(tct?  You pinch-hitting for Chip S?  Usually he gets first shot at
these...)
