Well then please don't talk about NOT having a deadline and NOT publishing
the articles in one go.

Sorry, ain't got Linux and I don't think I will get it in the near future
either (my father doesn't want it).

Me neither, actually, but something can be done about that!
Anyways, I agree with you, it is of later order. But still it's a very nice
idea.

No no no not at all... That would (ofcourse) be nice too, but that was not
the idea.
You can't hyperlink to the older magazines, can you? :)

I don't think this sounds very nice :(
I think it's just a FACT! Ask Frank, if he needed an article from my father
and he didn't get it yet, he called him.

Owww... dammit! No, not ALL are like me, but at least some!
I just think it would be way cooler if all articles came at the same time.
But what does Frank think about this?

Hmmm...
Don't think so.
I mean, why making this sequential? Then we might get trouble with the Von
Neumann-principle. And we wouldn't want that, would we?
Point is that it really is no use to cut all discussions because we are
humans, our multitasking capabilities are quite good.

*sigh* again, okay I KNOW Star Wars is a tiny little bit childish sometimes
(I think Anakin is stupid)... But you should definately see it.
