  I am disappointed at the level of noise that has been clogging the
  arteries on what used to be a wonderful newsgroup.

This is just to second his notion.  I almost unsubscribed recently but
Glenn's article reaffirmed my notion that many people are reading the
newsgroup as Postscript users and don't need elaborate ROM-internal type
information but more help on how to get specific tasks done.

Could anyone post a summary of Postscript viewers for VAX VMS X window
systems, Apollo DM/X Window systems, Macintoshes and Sun 3 and 4s with
just Sunview.  It would be much appreciated.
