VBOK #6 - Updates
______________________________________________________________________

Hey all, 
This edition is to let everyone know of some updates.

1. If your new to this mailing list, bear with me. I haven't quite got
   all my ducks in a row yet. There were also some people I had
   forgotten to add to the recipients in the beginning, so this is
   your first edition (See section 3c on how to get the previous
   editions. This newsletter is basically to let everyone know of
   interesting things (should be pretty much computer related),
   whether it be cool web sites, upgrading, Q&A, How to's, etc...

2. I've set up a real mailing list in Eudora (Note the TO: portion of
   the e-mail. It's not addressed to myself anymore).

3a. VBOK has turned into more of a newsletter, so each edition will
    now have an edition number and title assigned. I would still
    appreciate any submissions for articles in the newsletter (I'll
    even give you credit for them with a byline. :)

b. Some readers have asked if they can post questions in a forum. I
   think this would be a good idea. I don't know all the answers, so
   maybe one of you will have the answers they need. 

c. Here is the breakdown of all the newsletters by edition so far:

#0 - Filtering in Eudora (This wasn't originally a newsletter, but if
     you are using Eudora (e-mail program), I'll send it

#1 - D/Ling non-linked files from homepages

#2 - Electronics superpage

#3 - Upgrade to ICQ98a

#4 - Free e-mail services

#5 - Upgrading from Win95A to Win95B (OSR2) 

#6 - Updates (This edition)

4. Two readers (Dave Smith & DB) corrected me on two of the free
   e-mail services I sent information about in edition #4 of VBOK.

<http://www.usa.net> supports all four options.

<http://www.geocities.com> supports all four options.

5. There are now 62 subscribers to this newsletter. If you ever wish
   to be removed, just click here:

<mailto:vbok@biogate.com?subject=Unsubscribe_VBOK>

6. If there is something else you would like to see added to this
   newsletter, ask. We can probably work it out.

7. I do have some MAC users on this list, so I will try to provide
   mostly non-platform specific information, but I don't own a MAC, so
   there will be at times PC specific info here. I'll need your help
   for articles on MAC stuff if this list suddenly becomes one sided. 

**** Note, I will NOT re-post any submitted articles that bash one
     platform or the other. I have to listen to this all the time with
     the other mailing lists I'm subscribed to. Both platforms have
     distinct advantages and disadvantages over each other, so enough
     said on that.

8. This is going to be a monthly newsletter. I'm just like you
   guys/gals, I have other things to do too, so it will get out when
   it gets out. Also, I reserve the right to discontinue or pawn off
   this mailing list to someone else any time I decide to quit doing
   it. :)



   
Well, that concludes this issue. Have fun.
