Well, _THIS_ reader of comp.sys.apollo is interested, especially in
software updates (;-( ...we're Unix jocks here, you see...  and it does
get closer and closer). 

In addition, Apollo's presence on the net, along with the community of
knowledgeable users here, has saved me and my co-workers much grief,
hair loss, etc.  We've found out the answers to our problems before the
problems occurred (no kidding), and sometimes before the regional sales
people knew about them.  And knowing what to ask for when you call in
for support (both sales and technical) can save time and frustration on
both ends.
