Hello Friends:

Joseph Rosenblatt graciously mentioned us while he offered a theory
on why an Interex news item about the HP 3000 disappeared from the
Web - saying "Most of the web "services" companies want more hits on
their sites. Posting the URL is like writing: "Did you see that
article in The 3000 News/Wire?"

Well, we do like being thought of first as the source of 3000 news.
But we'd like Joseph (who's evaluating us during his free-trial
subscription) and everybody else to know that the NewsWire's HP 3000
news items don't disappear from the Web -- ever. We've got articles
online from 1996 at our paid subscribers' site, hundreds of them,
available in keyword search. At Adager's Web site, they have kindly
linked to an article I wrote in 1995, calling MPE a "Silver Bullet"
to beat NT and Unix.

We won't pull any of our stories off the Web which promote or help
maximize the HP 3000. When covering a legendary-legacy platform like
the 3000 -- which has some customers running production shops with
five-year-old versions of MPE -- even old news can be good news.
