Hello netland
	does anyone out there use HARRIS computers and want to talk about
it (sounds like a therapist).  Actually I would guess that reading usenet
and working on an H-series Harris machine are mutually exclusive unless
someone has done some wondrous hacking of the network/news software,  but
at our site we have an H-800 running VOS 6.1 (nee VULCAN) and an HCX-9 running
unix, and so I presume there may be other places with similar arrangements.
We have been using the H-series machines for several years now and have
pretty much figured out how to work round the bad points of VOS, and come
up with a working environment that is quite pleasant and efficient.  I 
always have the feeling of working alone in comparison with the unix/vms/
ibm communities tho.
	I hope the keywords mean something to someone out there (I've never yet seen a reference to harris on the net).  If there is enough response
we might move the discussion to a more suitable newsgroup.
