Re: A solution?

Hi all,

    As one with a ton of sentiment (been using a IIe since 1983 and in
this group on and off since 1995), I like the newsgroup and the name of
it just the way it is.  I'd hate to see this group "wink" off into
nothingness.  However, I wouldn't mind the Apple III questions or older
macs.  But opening it up may make it difficult for certain users to cut
through the crap to get what they need.

   But it's a good discussion though and I would like to see more ideas on
how to help other users with computers besides the II's.  :)

Don
