I think the original point was that it looked like it *was* starting to dominate the group, with more messages about os's etc than about Pentax stuff.

While random off-topicness is discouraged, the regulars who contribute all the time to the group are given a lot of leeway. Personally, I think this is right and proper, although t can go a little over the top. A discussion of OS merits is ok, as long as it doesn't dominate the list and as long as useful information is disseminated in a civilised way. If the PC/OS thread had ended up as "Mac SUX!" "No! PC SUX" then it would have been poor, but I though there was a good exchange of information. dave - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
