Well, there are a lot of people who are glad it doesn't, but that's another
matter for another time.

As for the other information, you are, of course, correct.  My brain was
completely on the 6000 when I made those comments.  It's correct for the
6000, too.  It just doesn't work for the PS/2, which is what was originally
commented on...  Thanks for keeping me honest.

You are not the only one.  Keep trying.  After all, it worked with the
"Open Letter on USENET" for HP/Apollo customers.  Speaking of which, I
think HP/Apollo brought up some good points about using the internet
for bug fixes and bug reporting.

I'm sure companies will start using e-mail for bug-reporting and maybe
even bug-fix distribution.  The question, though, is when.  And what
does legal have to say about it.

  PS/2 it, or DIE!  :-)  The ramblings above have nothing to do with Big Blue.
