Re: [Nolug] user group consolidation

Hmm....
Interesting! I wonder what kind of web browser they are using in DOS.
Is there a DOS port of links or lynx?

Java and .NET united. Hmm.... why not, since they are practically the
same. Microsoft just could not use the "java" name so they made new
one.... :-)
I just hear of this one couple of weeks ago....

In short, more the merrier......

And if meetings at the UNO seem unachievable, I can probably arrange a
meeting place at the Film studio (UNO Foundation) in Elmwood.
