Re: "Asimov" appears to be down! :(

Well, an alternative to that is everyone contributing what bits and
pieces they have (manuals, software, etc) and letting everyone d/l it
so everyone can have the same stuff.  This stuff is getting scarce and
it would be great ot have it all at your finger tips.  This is what is
great about this news group.  Everyone helps everyone just like the
old hacker ethic....the sharing of information!
