I have found the netnews Mac newsgroups (net.micro.mac and fa.info-mac)
invaluable in providing information about the Mac.   I have been reading
them for a while and have recently bought a Fat Mac.  I know of three
other people here who have also bought Macs within the last three weeks.

The problem:   How do we get up to speed on some basic things about
	       File Exchange, etc.   I'm sure that months ago, in this
	       newsgroup, a lot of articles explained how macput/macget
	       and binhex 2.0 and binhex 4.0 and xbin and all the others
	       work.  But we missed them.   How can that information
	       be periodically provided, maybe in a single digest, to
	       new readers (and owners)?

Suggestions via mail appreciated.
