Boy that is a loaded question, please define "more important." CompuServe has a large number of diverse topic areas to access, and a huge number of public domain/shareware packages. They also have round tables sponsored by product vendors where you can get online support. On the other hand it is expensive. But more important?!? -- Steve Martin | Nothing I say can be held against U S West Marketing Resources Group | Me or my employer! (...uswat.uswest.com!uswmrg2!steve)

Hi I have just purchased the May issue of US MacUser magazine and find that one can get the source code for the miniGenApp from Compuserve. I am not on compuserve as it is prohibitively expensive for foreign users so I was wondering if someone would place these source code items on an anonymous ftp site, or comp.binaries.mac or comp.sources.mac. I realize that the code may be copyrighted by the authors, but again, I don't think that I can contact them via UseNet. If it is possible to email MacUser or MacWorld, I would be happy to do so, if I had the appropriate mailing address. Last question: which do you think is more important/bigger: CompuServe or UseNet? *====*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===*===* Phil Ryan ANU Department of Physics and Theoretical Physics Canberra, Australia pfr654@csc.anu.oz.au phone:(61 6) 249 4678 fax:(61 6) 249 0741
