Aucbvax.1797 fa.apollo utzoo!duke!decvax!ucbvax!Liddle@PARC-MAXC Wed Jun 17 05:34:10 1981 Arpanet usage Many of you in Xerox are aware of a newly created Arpanet distribution list named Apollo. It was established to promote discussion of personal workstation computers. As you might expect, much of the recent discussion has involved the Xerox 8010 Star information system. Because many of the messages ask for information about this product and its associated development software, you may feel tempted to reply to some of them.

It is ARPA policy that the Arpanet be used only for government supported research and development. It is against Xerox policy to use the Arpanet to discuss products. It is completely inappropriate to use the Arpanet in a way that may be construed as selling or promoting a Xerox product (or future product). Xerox employees use the Arpanet for ARPA related research purposes only, not for answering questions or distributing information about our products.

Questions from potential customers about the Xerox 8010 and other OPD products should be referred to Arnold Palmer, Field Sales Manager, Xerox Corporation, 1341 West Mockingbird Lane, Dallas, Texas 75247, phone (214) 689-6689.
