I am enjoying all this NeXT discussion quite a bit -- it's one more reason there's nothing quite like Usenet. But as matters stand right now there are about 6-10 separate discussions taking place cross-posted to 4 or more newsgroups, all under one Subject: line! This plays havoc with newsreaders, both in the software and human sense. I suggest we move everything to comp.sys.misc for now, and edit our subject lines to reflect what we're ACTUALLY talking about, e.g.: NeXT - chip cramming NeXT - educational/public pricing NeXT - optical drive pro/con NeXT - what about MACH? etcetera. Please take a moment to think about this suggestion and (I hope) comply for the sake of net.sanity. Btw the volume of discussion on this machine (if it keeps up), coupled with NeXT's apparent academic targeting, make it seem real likely to me that comp.sys.next is inevitable sooner or later. We can make the best case for the newsgroup by focusing everything in one group like comp.sys.misc -- the regulars of which will then become comp.sys.next's biggest boosters! :-) -- Tom Neff UUCP: ...!cmcl2!phri!dasys1!tneff "None of your toys CIS: 76556,2536 MCI: TNEFF will function..."
