Smiles, Editor Mike Azzara and Executive Editor Mitch Irsfeld.  However, I have
a few questions:  

Why not send this out to the news groups focusing upon
the premier workstation vendors, Sun and Apollo?  (I changed the distribution.)  

Why are you doing this? Are you going to be fair? :=}

Aw, send me a copy anyway.  I'm a traditional information junkie, and I am still
looking for a fair rag on workstations that offer UNIX, as well as additional
functionality.

3030 Wayne Rd. Wayne, MI 48184
(Somehow I don't think I'll get a copy, tho ...)

This looks like a great idea. How to we get on the subscription list? Many
of us won't be at that conference in San Francisco!
