Re: Update: But a permanent archive!

The problem with the suggestion of sharing the Apple II archive volume
with other platforms is this:

a) we paid for it -- if they want to use it, let them shell out the $$$
b) it'll set an unpleasant precedent -- eventually they'll just assume
they can do whatever they please with our drive.

I say, let's get a nice, big archive set up, but keep it for ourselves --
EXCEPT for stuff that's entirely cross-platform compatible: TrueType
fonts, GIFs, and MODs.
