Re: Scope of G-List

[Tim Collier]

This will be my last comment on this topic.  I promise!  When I get my 
mail, I am always excited at what I may find on the G-List.  I 
patiently read through all of the topics relating to people still using 
OS 9 on a G3 or even a G4 (none of which applies to me).  I patiently 
read through such topics as Eudora, Netscape and Internet Explorer no 
longer being supported.  All fine topics, but once again, don't apply 
to me.  Once in a 'blue moon', there is something that I find 
interesting here and that is the MAIN reason that I belong to this 
list.
I KNOW that Lowendmac is the sponsor of this list and most of you want 
to get the MOST out of your aging and often obsolete Macs.  I, too, 
have one.....a G3 that I've upgraded with a G4 zif but you have to face 
the fact also that the modern OS on the Mac is a Unix based GUI system 
and the world marches on.
Many people are only interested in getting their email and surfing the 
web but I am also interested in continually learning new things.  I 
have begun an exploration of the unix part of OS X and have been 
discovering some really cool things.
Per the suggestion of some private emails that I've gotten, I have now 
subscribed to a G5 list and a OS X Unix list, so I won't be bothering 
you people with such issues anymore.
So, we'll stick to discussing G3's and G4's and running our old OS 9.  
I'll continue to monitor the list in hopes of a novel, fresh 
idea.....but that's about it.

Dan Knight is in the process of rewriting the G-List Terms of service.

does include G5's.
Exterminate all rational thought.
