Is it just me or does the whole idea of voting on this seem rather silly?
I mean if you take Linux discussion off the list, logically you can then
take OS/2-specific discussion, off, then maybe Windows. Then you figure not
everyone has an ethernet card so take that off. Then not everyone has a
modem so get rid of that. Not everyone is interested in a hard drive or
memory upgrade so nix those. etc. etc.
If we make sure we cut down on quoted text, make only relevant posts (don't
everyone write an essay describing every step you've taken trying to get
Linux running), use descriptive subject headings, and move the discussion
to email when it starts getting away from general interest, this shouldn't
be a problem.
Obviously I vote YES to keep it on the list.
