I sure am tired of seeing this ad for a PC laptop for sale! How 'bout the rest of you?

I agress most whole heartedly - more and more FOR SALE postings are appearing and I for one would like to see them restricted to to *.forsale groups. I would politely request that no more FOR SALE posting be made to this group. Hui-Lin Lim ARPA: huilin%hpinddf@hplabs.hp.com UUCP: {ucbvax,hplabs}!hpinddf!huilin Phone: (408)447-2835

Why tell us, he already posted a note which say he doesn't care. If you're really unhappy send a note to postmaster at att.com and att!ihlpf. AT&T stopped carrying our messages because it was junk mail, maybe they would be kind enough to ask this guy to become a good citizen. I hope he waits a long time to sell it. bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM) {uunet | philabs}!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me

I have both sold and bought things through comp.sys.ibm.pc, and I find the forum invaluable for that reason (among others). I'd like to take an informal vote as to whether you think that *short* for-sale items should continue to appear in comp.sys.ibm.pc. Please send me mail, and I will summarize. Also, would people be interested in comp.sys.ibm.pc.forsale as an alternative?
