There is a NeXT group or sub-group as part of the Boston Computer Society. They put out a nifty little newletter and have meetings once a month or so. I forgot the group director's name, but they just put out a newsletter and it really wasn't that bad, some nice goals. It's not BuzzNUG, but it hasn't been alive as long and doesn't canvas the nets as much (at all). BCS dues are cheap ($28 or something like that for students) and there are lots of extra goodies. DISCLAIMER: I belong to BCS, but other than that I have no vested interest and even my employer doesn't like paying me too much...;-). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Roger Jagoda -- My employers don't even like paying Cornell University me, let alone accept responsibility fqoj@cornella.cit.cornell.edu for anything I say or do! --

They have been around for awhile, and they are definitely on the net. clp@wjh12.harvard.edu [Charles L. Perkins] and Dan are working on that cool and affordable fax modem for the cube that Charles described here last week or so. Plus some other very neat concepts. >Roger Jagoda -- My employers don't even like paying >Cornell University me, let alone accept responsibility >fqoj@cornella.cit.cornell.edu for anything I say or do! -- Andrew

I tried to join the BCS last fall, (specifically for the NeXT subgroup) but being up here in the Great White North, they said no-go. You can only belong to the BCS if you live in the U.S. I would be greatly indebted to any kind soul who would be willing to let me read their BCS NeXT group newsletter... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mike Brown, Gradual Student in Computer Science, University of Western Ontario brown@csd.uwo.ca ..then the bartender says "That's not a duck!".
