OK, I will reply to the list. This list was touted as the one to sign
up with where off topic as well as on topic discussions were allowed. I
opted NOT to sign up for the more strict ON topic only version of the
list. But apparently neither is for general discussion, BOTH are only
strictly ON Topic. Im outa here, too many net police on this list

Sorry I didn't have time to dispose of my garage full of computers. I
will just take them to E Bay where no one bitches about being slightly
off topic.

Enjoy yourselves, I'm outa here.
