After all, MS-Windows is one of the most popular environments out there, and there are bound to be a lot of stupid questions ( with new Internet users coming on line every day ). *THAT'S* why we ( the Usenet Community ) need to keep a good, up to date FAQ. So my question: What's up with the Windows FAQ, and the Windows programming FAQ!! - The 1st FTP site DOSENT EXIST!!! The real name is: ftp.nimh.nih.gov - But the nimh directory STILL isn't right! The real directory is: /pub/win31/FAQ ( I think... ) - The Second FTP site dosen't have an up to date copy! - The FAQ also dosen't contain up to date info on: - W4WG 3.11 - Win 4.0 Chicago - Win Ciaro Which I would suggest are some of the most FAQ's! Yet the FAQ *CLAIMS* to be up to date for the past 2 weeks or so. Why am I posting this? I would like to get some discussion on it! Nothing more! I would also like Tom Haapanen, to reply. I just want to know! - Keith S.
