Lines: 17 Howdy, I am once again considering joining BIX, which is Byte magazine's conference system. Can someone out in Netland provide any input on the value of BIX? I have heard it tends to be more mature and involves more professionals than college students. Other than the yearly fee for BIX versus 'free' for students, I don't understand why this would be true. Any opinions :) ? Thanks. -- --------------------------------------------------------- Ken Swapp / ken@gtenmc.UUCP "Be careful that the light you find at the end of the tunnel isn't the flashlight you dropped on your way in."
