Clearly the newsfeed out of c.b.ibm.pc has been quite irregular and there has been quite a demand for pc software. Simtel & grape.clarkson have both provided wonderful sources of pc software. Your updates help netusers keep up with the latest software available on simtel without having to anonymously ftp every week to check personally what is new. Keep up the good work!
