Until a list owner, or moderator says different - I'd say you can assume that
Basically the list is for users of windowsXPhome and prior OS's There is a list for Win2000 users if you want to bother, but I'd expect most 2000 users would also be looking at this list There is no distinction between questions for problem solving at home or at work. That said, you should not expect full solutions including code for work projects or homework problems Guides, advice, caveats techniques, and indications of personal experiences and problems including the naming of software and suppliers - yes just ask 'Flame wars', insulting posts, sales attempts (Spamming), religion, porn, politics, and discussion of other perversions may get you thrown off of the list JimB ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ben Parker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, September 20, 2006 9:09 PM Subject: Re: home/work or what? A question came up off-list. I thought I would try to clarify (although I'll probably just muddy the waters further). >At 03:05 PM 9/20/2006, Richard King typed: >>... Where does the list draw the line between work & home stuff? the name/title of the list is WinHome/SOHO (small office home office). We talk here primarily about the Operating Systems Win 95, Win98, Win ME, Win 2000 Pro, Win XP Home, Win XP Pro, and occasionally about Win 2000 Server, Win 2003 Server. There is even a very occasional mention of (gasp!) MS-DOS. There is no clear distinction between home/work here and we have a number of people who work in small offices or who otherwise support PCs and PC networks in small offices (up to 10-20 machines or so). Some of us have 15+ machines in our homes, all on a network. Some of us have only 1 laptop running a dialup connection to the internet. Anything in this area is fair to ask about and for others to share their own experiences and knowledge. There is a lot of interest in, and a lot of questions about, home networking these days both wired and wireless. Any of these are fair subject matter as well. What you do at home is probably no different than you might do in a small office or vice versa. So feel free to ask. We generally don't talk about Domain Controllers, VLANs and client/server systems such as you might find in a much larger office (100-1000+ machines). That kind of subject matter is for WINNT-L or other lists. -- ---------------------------------------- To Change your email Address for this list, send the following message: CHANGE WIN-HOME your_old_address your_new_address to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note carefully that both old and new addresses are required. -- ---------------------------------------- To Change your email Address for this list, send the following message: CHANGE WIN-HOME your_old_address your_new_address to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note carefully that both old and new addresses are required.
