Now I let the > \_/ \_/ PC roll the dice. Excuse me - a purist when it comes to newsgroup subjects. Is it me or do these WIN95 A TRUE OS? threads belong somewhere else? Now I know most of you other .strategics have tried to conclude this perpetual follow-upping (by adding win95 et al to your killfile) but my newsreader, provided by MY :) university, does not have this killfile feature. Flame me if I'm wrong, but not by email. Send flames to comp.os.msdos.programmer or so. ;-> And for any of you WIN95-a-TRUE-OS?-Help-a-newbie writers, kindly mind where you send your follow-ups and posts. They REALLY clutter up _*EVERY*_ (quadruple capslock) newsgroup, including some like comp.os.msdos.programmer. And for any of you (am I repeating myself?) .strategics, maybe we should be just as bad as they are and start talking about CIV, MOO, MOM on THEIR groups... I mean this group is getting quite full anyway; 800 articles pile up during the weekend for me to read. not a sig: The above paragraph is definitely an implied threat; however, if you are a lawyer or a internet-cop or wish to prosecute me for whatever reason, the above paragraph somewhat unconventionally DOES represent the company I work for, its owner, and my directly responsible employer, all these parties as at the writing of this post. BTW I have no employer at this moment - hahahaha.
