Nope, sorry Bob, but you are in this one by yourself. I am COMPLETELY in favor of people posting Apple computer related items to comp.sys.apple forsale. Maybe I am a little off base on my ideas, but it seems kind of natural to post Apple computer items forsale to an Apple computer network. I don't see what your problem with this is. The message you are uptight about now is very well marked as being something forsale as are almost all of these types of postings. Just skip over them and don't read them if they bother you. Its not like every other message is something forsale. Dan Canfield Send flames to DCANFIELD@BYUVAX or post them to the net. I figure everyone will get a kick out of watching people make fools of themselves. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My employer doesn't have any opinions so the above stated must be my own. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
