Aucbvax.1712 fa.apollo utzoo!duke!mhtsa!ucbvax!LEAVITT@USC-ISI Sat Jun 13 13:07:49 1981 Miscellany 1) Many thanks to Jeff Schrage at MC for providing us with the kinds of facts on Mesa that this list needs more of. Anybody else have a similar wealth of knowledge? 2) I really like the term "perscoms" to describe all of what we are discussing, from the Apples to the Stars. Exactly what lets us distinguish the little ones from the big ones, so that we can have useful subtypes? Is it just the screen size/colors? 3) Does anyone know just how easy it is for the Star to talk to a 5700? We have gotten this demoed, and if those guys could easily talk to each other, that would be very neat. 4) If the new operating system for Perq is called Salt. We will have a tough time with their interactive front-end: we'll all be discussing salt talks.
