Apresby.127 net.general,net.news.group utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!mhtsa!ihnss!houxi!npois!harpo!presby!aron Sun Jan 17 20:57:56 1982 new newsgroup It would be a forum to discuss personal computers of all sorts. This means all hardware, not just S-100 machines, all software, not just CP/M. The emphasis should be personal computers as total systems, not so much discussions on whether the Z80 is a better chip than the 8085. I originally proposed this as net.pc but some people complained about short, meaningless names. Besides, why give IBM free advertising? Please confine all further discussion about this new group to net.news.group. If I get enough favorable responses I will begin posting on Wednesday.
