        As is often the case, kdf's comment is among the most insightful
        among the chatter.  The one thing I fear about this change is
        *the management of success*.  Many of us were here when AOL
        arrived on usenet.  Remember that?  I'm a SB1 owner ("old"
        but hardly among the originals) and I remember reading every
        single slimlist post...now, forget it.  I finally aliased a
        "Delete Thread" key in my mail client just for this list.

        What's going to happen when we get 10K new users?  [Note the use
        of the pronoun "we" - as if it's something more than just a cool
        box that plays my music.]

        P.S. - I can only imagine some of the discussions over the
        phone/table.  "Well, first we have this users' group.  Second,
        we have this guy, kdf..."

        Good work, slimdevices.  You deserve every bit of your good
        fortune.
