[net.news.group] Propsal: net.micro.7300

chute@dartvax.UUCP (Christopher Chute) (04/30/85)

  What are folks' thoughts on a new group deserving of a new machine.  This is
a Unix network afterall, the AT&T 7300 (Safari) is perhap the first truely
Unix pc.  [I am a soon to be owner (of course)]  I have no connection with
AT&T except as an occasional long distance customer.

 YES --- I want one -- although AT&T does seem to have its act together yet,
I believe that the machine will soon be on uucp net somewhere...

You have my vote. I also would like to see a net.micro.6300 created.
Heck, I use to be a member of the AT&T family until they kicked us
out.

Re: net.micro.7300

I vote NO on this group, until traffic in net.micro warrents it.

I also suggest a more generic name without numbers. For example:

	net.micro.att

-len tower	    UUCP:     {bellcore,ihnp4}!inmet!tower
 Intermetrics, Inc. INTERNET: ima!inmet!tower@CCA-UNIX.ARPA

As the uninformed one who first
suggested net.micro.7300, I admit my
ignorance and withdraw the proposal.
I think the suggested replacement
name of net.micro.att is just swell
despite the probable increased
traffice associated with 3B2 etc. and
misc. comments about voice telephone
communication (remember that?).  WE
might learn quite a bit  from the 3B
series folks anyhow.
