Friends, I usually don't jump out and cross post to all the lists like
this, but I want to take a second to offer a friendly reminder of a few
of the rules of our family of mailing lists.

1. Please do not send file attachments.
2. Please make sure that your full name (first and last) appears
somewhere in the message.
3. Please do not cross post to other lists in your message.
4. Please do not use any special formatting in your message, including
HTML.  Plain text only, please!
5. Please post your message to the list in which it best fits.
6. Please, please, please, don't get snippy with anybody in the list, or
with the moderating staff.  Try to get along.

Check at http://www.nospin.com for all the rules.

I hardly ever complain, but I want everyone to know that PCBUILD,
PCSOFT, and VPLANETS is a labor of love on mine and Bob's part, as well
as on the part of everyone on the moderating staff.  I'm taking a 16
credit load at school and work five hours a day, so I don't have a whole
lot of time to send responses back to folks who post inappropriate
messages.  If the messages that you get from me sound terse and short,
it's because I don't have the time to be very long-winded.

The rest of the moderators work under similar schedules, so please take
it easy on us and make sure that the message that you're posting is the
right one to post.  As a clue...a reply to this message in the list
would NOT be right.

Thanks, and now back to our regularly scheduled posting!
