- <grin> I work for the company that is handling the initial sign-up and
- will be handling some of the help desk calls come start-up. I've been
- thinking of writing up a mini Amiga FAQ for the folks in the WorldNet
- project so they don't all go "sorry, you need an IBM compatible to access
- the internet."
-
- If anyone has suggestions for some key points to include in the FAQ I
- would appreciate your assistance! =I
-
- And just in case:
-
- "Any opinions read from or dreamt up while reading this text are mine and
- not those of my employer." :)
