Sam, you have to understand that if people don't
feel comfortable
asking questions on this list, even if they are irrelevant, they
won't ask anything at all. You can't intimidate people if you want
them to deal with you.
How many times must this argument be re-hashed? You didn't join this list
to discuss Star Trek, you joined it to discuss CLASSIC (ie. OLD, ANTIQUE,
VINTAGE, OBSOLETE) computers. Hence the name, ClassicCmp. Anybody is
free (and I encourage them) to ask ANY question they want that is
somewhere in the realm of CLASSIC computers. There are hundreds of Star
Trek discussion groups. Just because one is too lazy to go find them is
no excuse.
Not only did you fail to realize this, but you went ahead and answered his
question anyway, and from the looks of my inbox, a bunch of irrelevant
replies will follow. Thanks a lot, Max.
