to non-cs undergrads) have rn or equivilent running on them?

	Thanks!

Uh, if you can get an account, you can read news... (i.e., all
of them...) (well.. there *may* be 1 or two...)

       You can read news pretty easily on most machines.  POSTING news is  
 the tricky part.  Two Computer Center machines (ucbopal and ucbtopaz) supp-
 osedly have the latest versions of rn and postnews; anyone who is willing
 to part with a couple of greenbacks can get accounts on these machines, as 
 long as you are a member of the U.C. Community (i.e. student, faculty, or
 staff).  I have seen postings on the net from ucbtopaz, so I'm pretty sure
 getting an account there is your best bet.  Sorry for posting this,
 but I tried mailing a couple times to no avail.
