Posting product announcements is a very worthwhile use of the net provided: 1) the product is truly new, and 2) the product is available immediately or *VERY* soon, and 3) the announcement is brief If these criteria are adhered to, the announcement becomes more a news item than an advertisement. Now, if I can save moey by purchasing one of these new products (or if I can get something more quickly), the value of the net to those in the administration is now much greater and easier to justify. --john -- John McDermott {gatech|ucbvax|convex}!unmvax!mcdermot Univ of NM W (505) 277-4650 Albuquerque, NM 87131 H (505) 255-7796

From: Barry Gold <lcc.barry@UCLA-LOCUS.ARPA> I know of no faster or better way of seeing announcements of new products of interest than in this newsgroup. I found the product announcement of interest (although I probably won't recommend buying the product right now). SPeak for yourself, Mats. barry gold
