Message-ID: <292@hoxna.UUCP> Date: Thu, 23-Aug-84 10:38:00 EDT Article-I.D.: hoxna.292 Posted: Thu Aug 23 10:38:00 1984 Date-Received: Sat, 25-Aug-84 05:37:24 EDT Organization: Bell Labs, Holmdel NJ Lines: 12 xxx Is there any interest in starting a net.micro.msdos newsgroup to discuss microcomputers that run generic MS-DOS (not IBM PC-DOS)? There are quite a few machines like this, like the Zenith Z100, DEC Rainbow, NEC, NCR, Sanyo, etc. Most of these machines are discussed in net.micro or net.micro.pc. I think a more specific newsgroup would be much more appropriate. An alternative would be a net.micro.8088 that would cover other operating systems for the 8086 family (like CP/M-86, VENIX, Concurrent, etc.). -- Kenton Lee, Bell Labs - WB wb3g!kfl or hoxna!kfl
