- Just a thought... This might be to Compuserve trying to increase fees for
- Internet<->Compuserve traffic. Compuserve is in it for the money, and might
- be asking too much for IBM to feel justified in paying. (Of course, this
- might just be a Compu$erve/Micro$oft plot to take over the free world and
- force us to use archaic operating environments and slow response time. ;^)
-
- Will IBM be adjusting to this by creating an Internet address for problem
- reports? They, themselves are on the net (here and there...).
