I am very interested in both the 520st and the amiga.
When I see an article claiming to comtain useful information
I am naturally interested, especially when it says it is n (n>50) lines long.
What do I usually find.
Three previous articles indented one column in, with perhaps 5 lines of
original content.
If you must quote other articles, please take the trouble to edit out all the
blank lines, signatures etc. This network costs a lot of money and your just
wasting it! (I am not paying for the priviledge, but will shortly)
I am afraid netnews is like a party. There is lots of drivel being talked.
Fortunately at a party, there is so much noise that you can talk rubbish
and very few people will notice.
I should point out that there is a lot of good stuff in this news group so keep
it up. However let us accept the fact that Apple has a lot of money and can
afford to sue DR if it so desires. Next topic!!!!.
