I'm only going to say this once. I will make no replies to this post
outside of private E-mail, and I will accept no arguments from those
involved in the current flame-war that even HINT at attempted justification
for their cluttering of the list.
I have changed receipt of CLASSICCMP to 'ack' (non-digest) on my end so
that I may easily killfile/filter the entire childish flame-war polluting
this list, which the perpetrators of seem unwilling to take to private
E-mail as should have happened when the thing first lit up.
I am tired of reading about who's right, who's wrong, who's a con-artist
and who's not, and who's doing what to whom and for how much. I am here for
one purpose; to share knowledge of old hardware and software, specifically
DECish stuff. Others, I'm going to assume, are here for the purpose of
sharing knowledge of the systems they have interest in.
I do not believe that anyone is here to share a flame-war. If the
flame-war traffic continues in the form of list postings, I will begin
filtering by author rather than by subject thread. This could cause me to
miss something I value, or to fail to respond to a question that I could
answer, but at this point I feel that risk is justified.
Read my typing. TAKE YOUR STUPID FLAME-WAR TO E-MAIL! PLEASE!
Thank you.

Well, I've been sweating my a$$ off today taking totally useless junk
(for example, a PC clone case that someone backed a car over at a
hamfest) (and, no, it wasn't me) =-) to the dumpster to make space so I
can move the PDP-11/84 and 11/34 down to the basement this week.
Keep in mind these machines are sitting between me and the PDP-8i's in
the garage so I have to move them first. I have to move a pretty loaded
11/34, an 11/84, a TU-80, an RA-81, an RK05j and an RK05f and related
power supplies and racks! Woo hoo!
I'm excited!
