This is partly a test to see if there really are zero articles in comp.sys.mac.
For a group that posts 30 to 50 articles a day, how can there be no articles
on 9/28/88.

Now, since this will probably go out anyways (even if I never see it), I'll
make it worth your time.

The September issue of Macintosh II Report (Thom Hogan and Michael Swaine)
says that "Plugging anything into the Apple Desktop Bus while the system is
running can harm the Macintosh II's motherboard. This means that you shouldn't
plug or unplug either the keyboard or the mouse while the system is running."

This advice is given in response to two readers who asked (1) if it was OK
to switch from the mouse to a trackball while using a CAD program and (2)
whether the dealer was telling the truth about the owner damaging his own
motherboard by plugging in the mouse while the computer was running.

Has anyone else heard or read this before?  If there are no cautions in the
manual about this, are you really responsible for any damage that occurs?

Hope I see this at FileNet.  (I still don't believe zero articles.)
