Welcome to ClassicCmp!

CLASSICCMP - The "Classic Computers" Discussion List

NAQ (Never Asked Questions) 0.1

What is it?

This list is for the discussion of Classic Computers -
primarily for those people who collect and restore
old machines. It is brand new - no subscribers yet
so sign up. The collection and restoration of computers
is becoming a big enough hobby that I felt a need for
a place to talk about it.

What is a classic computer?

Well that's hard to say but since I created the list I'll
do it anyway. A classic computer is a machine that has not
been produced for 10 years or more. It's an arbitrary
definition but at least uncomplicated.

What are the guidelines?

The list is designed for discussion of collecting, restoring,
and maintaining old computers. I'm not going to be heavy
handed with restricting discussion. I'd just like it to be
clear that the list is not the proper place for discussion
of technical problems with the standard PCs and Macs (other
than the really old stuff). Anyone can lurk - if you're
going to post, just use your own good judgement.

This IS NOT and will NEVER BE a list for discussion of "which
computer is best?" and anyone who posts the ubiquitous "why
don't you just go buy a PC you moron" will be immediately
unsubbed.

Beyond this - have fun! That what keeps us going with these
old machines.

How do I subscribe?

Subscribing to this list is slightly more challenging than
most. Read the instructions below.

1. Send a message to listproc_at_u.washington.edu with the line

        subscribe CLASSICCMP your-address

in the body of the message.

2. Send a message to bill_at_booster.u.washington.edu introducing
yourself and explaining why you wish to be added to the list.

That's it. I require the letter of introduction for several
reasons. 1 - Only people who really want to be on the list
will bother. 2 - If you can't follow directions I won't hear
from you. 3 - It helps me get an idea of who's on the list
and what they hope to get out of it. 4 - I like to respond
personally to new members rather than run a robot list.
