I don't place a whole lot of trust in Dvorak's "news"--really overblown rumors, mostly. Case in point: He just recently raved about a communications program for PCs called Procomm. That's hardly new news to me--I had an early version a year ago, and the current release (2.3) for *six months* now. I conclude that his information is running about 6 months behind, not too good for the supposed "cutting edge" of information. Edward Vielmetti, U-M Computing Center, ihnp4!umich!umix!emv
