I don't know about u guys, but not enough people realize what kind of menace NSI is to the net.
Ever hear of priority service? People who are "Internic" get screwed with crusty templates that aren't reliable because u didn't pay the extra parking fee and get hosted as worldnic, u get charged for 299 usd if you want to transfer ownership of a domain in a reasonable amount of time, or do it the standard way and wait with the other 5000 people who've sent in a notarized fax. Then there is the domain thats been deactivated or expired for over a year, who ever gets to renew it? I'm sure those deleters don't get paid enough. And the most hopeless part is that 2/3's of the domains are registered with them.
Where is all these new amiga machines? They are selling a dev workstation, which is an amd k6.
I owned an amiga 500, my first pc, and I loved it dearly, I was never able to afford a hard drive at the time because it cost 500 bucks for a 20 meg drive. But with my 24bps modem a floppy and a list of npd sites... What the amiga could've been if it didn't just die overnite. World wouldda been a different place.
To think of it, its still in a cardboard box laying around somewhere ridden with the saddam virii.
