  1. Too much Spam, too many forums on Is Usenet Dying? · · Score: 2

    Hi, Ive been on the Net since early 97 and havent really used Usenet to get answers. If I have a question about my Mac, I go to a Mac forum, if I want to know something about webdesign, I also know where to go. Its simply quicker and easier to get into web forums. If there are not many people around, others wont get anwers. Thus, nobody is interested in posting in Usenet. Theres also too much spam around. Do those Spammers really think anybody cares about their crap? However, I think deja.com makes a good approach since it integrates Usenet into the Web. Matt

  2. Linux? on Basic Linux Systems for the Home User? · · Score: 1

    Linux is great for all those techies and wanna-be techies. But this is going too far. Just imagine if something goes wrong, he wont be able to fix it. Give him an iMac with both MacOS and LinuxPPC and let him choose...

  3. Visor updates on Good-Bye Nino; Hello from Handspring · · Score: 1

    Hi guys! This is my first post on /. Im really glad I found this awesome site. Well, what I wanted to ask is if theres absolutely no way you can update the Palm OS in the Visor? However, it might not be that bad, since the whole thing will look quite obsolete in one or two years, anyway. When these things get color screens by then, how long do you think will battery life be?
