Don't get me wrong, I       learn a tremendous amount from CSA2's immediate answers and also it's decades       of accessible discussions. I read all the time and sometimes talk. Is it more       of a future-proof        community? Is it more searchable than the Facebook groups? What brings you       here?       >              I read eight newsgroups regularly.       When I check my email with Thunderbird it not only shows my email but       displays the newsgroups that have new posts. Easy.              If I had eight different sites to check then I have to do them       individually and I end up getting side tracked.              There are several Apple 2 related forums (not Facebook) that I       occasionally look at but again it's just easier to read CSA2.              Charlie              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
