On the contrary, in the software section of my local computer store (Microcenter, Memorial Drive, Cambridge, MA) there is a boxed copy of Red Hat Linux 9. It contains a gzip-compressed ascii encoded text copy of the TCP/IP specifications. Across the aisle is a discount bin containing old Macintosh software, including the screen saver After Dark, which contains a digitized print of Starry Night. -- Brian Sniffen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
