Re: Have you read this?

Yeah, I guess you are right, this is coming from the magazine that in
the April 1999 issue, on page 118 under the heading Infectious AS/400
Networks, suggested that the only way to cure your 400 of a phony virus
called NOMAD was to DELETE ALL PROGRAMS, REFORMAT YOUR DISKS, AND RELOAD
EVERYTHING!
On the same page under Too Much Windows 98 they suggested that the
correct way to uninstall Win98 was to issue the command c:\format! 
Now I realize these were jokes, but they gave very little indication of
that fact, the one and only hint being on the second page of the table
of contents an icon which says April Fools Fun!
Hmmm fools, News 400 ????
This among other reasons is why I discontinued my subscription.
