And there's the rub, because uk.comp.sys.mac is also for Demon customers
[and everyone else] who have platform specific issues which are nothing
[particularly] to do with Demon.

Therefore demon.tech.mac is merely an obsolete, crippled duplicate of
u.c.s.m - because non-Demon people aren't reading it although it is of
use & interest to them.

No big deal, but for the sake of tidiness...
