   Yes indeed? What? Only professional reputation. However the purpose
   of a magazine is to distribute text [etc]. See somebody's previous network
   message on tests used to determine legal standing. In this case the
   editorial has merely been reproduced on a relatively unfriendly medium [ie
   the network]. Dvorak and "DEC Professional" are living in a dream
   world if they expect their words to reach only friendly ears
   [the captive readership] or conversely: if they expect that their
   readership be only subjected to pro-VMS opinion.
