I think it actually affects their bottom line, just in a way that would not make anybody fired, and this is why nobody would care. There is no way a CEO would say to his subCEO "you have neglected our supporters in hobbyist groups, I fire you". This would sound like a line from this Star Wars parody, Spaceballs. This is something Dark Helmet would have said as a president of Helmet PE (I have no idea what "PE" could stand for). I really liked the idea of running VMS on simh (and learning some more skills), even if I had to register online. But when I looked, it seemed I would have to make Polish users group first, became its only member and president (hehe) and only then register... Holy Schwartz, they tried to drag me on the dark side, but I resisted. -- Regards, Tomasz Rola -- ** A C programmer asked whether computer had Buddha's nature. ** ** As the answer, master did "rm -rif" on the programmer's home ** ** directory.
