I, for one, am glad to hear announcements regarding enhancements
to HP products for the 3000. It seems to me that between all of
the word problems and Unix gripes that have been going on, this
was one of the few useful posts I've seen in about the last month,
certainly one of the ones that least deserves such harsh critism.
 
Just my opinion. Ray.
