Liar. The TTY input is INTERRUPT DRIVEN. Therefore, it can't lock up.

Subject: Tuesday 2 January 2001 LXNY General Meeting: Michael Smith on shell
programming and the peril of a secret takeover of Earth by the 4C Entity in alliance
with T13
Date: 2 Jan 2001 03:33:52 -0500
LXNY will have a general meeting Tuesday 2 January 2001.
This meeting is free and open to the public.
The meeting runs from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm. After the meeting full and
precise instructions on how to get to our traditional place of refreshment
will be given in clear.
Thanks to support of the IBM Corporation, the meeting is at their building
at 590 Madison Avenue at East 57th Street on the Island of Manhattan.
Enter the building at the corner of Madison and 57th and ask at the desk
for the floor and room number.
Recently, LXNY members have been getting more and more questions from
people who have heard about free software and want to know more. Two sorts
of questions come up:
1. How do I do thus and such using free software?
2. Why use free software?
At this meeting we will start to answer questions of both sorts.
Michael Smith, General Manager of LXNY, will present an introduction to the
*n*x shell. Part of the reason for *n*x's extraordinary success is that
the shell presents to the user a radically object oriented view of just
about everything going on in a running system. The question of whether the
crudity of the view presented is an advantage or an impediment has
exercised flamers on Usenet for twenty years. But one thing is certain:
today, if you know the shell, you are master of your own box.

But by this summer, knowing the shell will not guarantee you control over
your own box.
Today one of our most important rights, the right to own a computer, stands
in grave peril. Vastly stupid but immensely wealthy and powerful secret
conspiracies stand poised to seize the hard disks of each and every home
and small office computer on the planet.

The plan is simple: require each ATA hard drive to contain secret hardware
and software under sole control of the Directorates of Infotainment. This
hardware and software will be impossible to control by the putative owner
of the hard drive. If four large corporations agree to the proposal, by
the summer of 2001, all new ATA hard drives will be required to contain
such machinery of surveillance and control. ATA hard drives are the most
popular drives in computers used by individuals for private purposes.
We will hear reports on the correlation of forces from members who have
gathered information from official and unofficial sources.
LXNY needs volunteers for the hard work of education and propaganda ahead
of us. If you want to help come to this meeting.

Yes. COM is implemented via DCE RPC which was done on Unix.
