There seem to be a lot of people who think that UN*X only runs on DEC hardware. Once apon a time that was true. Will someone please create a newsgroup along the lines of net.dec or net.vax or somwthing so that people interested in UN*X don't have to wear out the 'n' key on their terminals skipping the hardware related junk. net.unix-wizards is so close to being net.unix-bozos anyway that I know many people that have ceased reading it anyway. It needs its volume cut down somewhat. Andrew Gollan ACSnet: adjg@neology.oz UUCP: ...!seismo!munnari!neology.oz!adjg Neology Ltd. (The Word in Software)

There was an INFO-VAX but it was dominated by VMS discussions. With 20/20 hindsight, we now know what all these groups should have been named. Too late now..
