Somehow, a discussion I started of actually USING "home computers"
(versus merely collecting them) degenerated into a fight about what a
"home computer" is. And a sister discussion I attempted to start about
putting "modern" applications on classic machines yielded discouraging
words, too.
I certainly did not mean to imply that
these machines are not useful for "household
computing jobs", and by no
means did I intend that this mailing list is only for the classic "home
computers" with user communities, or to exclude anyone else from
participating.
Now here is somebody who knows how to use his head and can see clearly
without the fog of partiality in front of his eyes. Well done David. I
wholeheartedly share your views and welcome reasoning (as opposed to
rubbishing or distorting other people views)
Thank you
