(...) This I knew. (...) This I was a bit out of the loop about. (...) True. And I still agree that's not a good thing. I don't know what it is about a company like that. Tandy was on the bleeding edge of the personal computer revolution at one (...) (26 years ago, 24-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Um, odd ? That's OK, we think you're WEIRD. ;-) (FYI, France is no longer on the fringe of NATO, and the crypto ban has practically been lifted) Anyway, this has nothing to do with the issue of RS not shipping *anywhere* outside North (...) (26 years ago, 24-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I think we're jumping way ahead of the game here, guys. I'm not even concerned about a layout at this point. First things first. 1) We need to see exactly how many people are interested and how much time they can actually contribute to the (...)

(...) Yeah, cancelling sounds the best. There's been comparatively minimal feedback about the 11/27 meeting. It's really no wonder why that weekend was open at the library.
