As of tonight there 203 on the list, we have lost around 15-20 that have
unsubscribed for whatever reason. I have asked for more input from the
lurkers, but if they are happy it is not for me to complain. Right now there
is a very strong thread on Lunix/EMC. And if this continues to make progress,
it appears it will be the system of choice for many of us. And the price
seems to be right.
But soon Dan will have the DRO cards out, so expect to see a good thread
there. Also STEPSTER is in the wings waiting awaiting more discussion.
Dan also has a system in the works for the Sherline sized equipment, this
should also develop a good thread.
As to whether to split the list, a few I's and about 190 saying
nothing????????
I would say to anyone if your subject is not being discussed, jump in and
teach the rest of us, or ask questions to get the rest of us to teach you.
Just thoughts from me.
