Please set up  comp.os.minix  soon. I am the "net connection" for three of us
interested in MINIX (one works here but doesn't read news, the other is at a
company too paranoid to connect to the net - but he has already ordered 
MINIX!). Because I don't care much for PCs and "mush-dos", I don't want to
read comp.sys.ibm.pc to learn about MINIX.
