NeXT-FAQ.intro Introduction to Frequently Asked Questions on comp.sys.next.misc

Every four weeks (depending on the phase of the moon) a
number of postings are made to comp.sys.next.announce
which are a compilation of answers to commonly asked
questions in the comp.sys.next.* USENET groups.  Not all
questions appear, it is expected that readers have
access to NeXT manuals, and access other on-line sources
of information.

The FAQ is broken into sections and posted separately. 
These sections focus on various aspects of the NeXT
machine.  Items that appear within sections are not in any
particular order, and get added and removed over time. 
Posting the sections separately allows people to find
the sections interesting to them quickly.  It also allows
sections to be easily masked by the news reading program
(ie put FAQ.intro in the kill file).

Within each section each question will be preceded by a
Subject: field, allowing news readers to break up the
file into seperate questions.  Each question has its own
unique number.

FAQ.changes will contain any new or changed entries to
the FAQ since the last posting.  People wishing to
minimize download times should consult this post first. 

[soon, soon, I promise.  -Nathan]

The FAQ is kept on-line at several sites and may be
retrieved at any time: 

	plethora.media.mit.edu in pub/next/FAQ
	sonata.cc.purdue.edu in pub/next/FAQ
	srawgw.sra.co.jp [133.137.4.3]

to disseminate this information rather than preparing hardcopies.
This allows for readers to access the most recent information, and
perhaps save a couple of trees.
