The group comp.sys.acorn exists. I suggest all people reading eunet.micro.acorn to make sure they also get comp.sys.acorn. If this is not the case due to your sysadmin, tell them comp.sys.acorn will in the end replace eunet.micro.acorn (due to the larger distribution). To start at least a small ball roling in comp.sys.acorn, I'll leave you with the question `what is the ARM used in besides the Arc and ABC?'. Oh, in case you couldn't guess, followups are directed to comp.sys.acorn. Tiggr

I think he's probably referring to this 'Active Book Company' thing - I've seen the name, but haven't a clue what it's on about... Anybody care to elaborate?
