Comp.sys.ncr already exists....I suppose as the computer lines converge,
we'll see more of this activity there.  I don't doubt that comp.sys.att will
now have a finite life span.  I assume that it will continue to exist
for pre-merger system news/support/etc.....?

I've been told that  NCR does have some AT-style boxes.  I don't know any
