Fair point, just cos I'm not interested in this aspect doesn't mean others
aren't.

Again agreed. I could add filters for Lindows and with my crystal ball any
other concepts I may not be interested in the future.

Personally, I'd love a Rev Windows CE solution for PDA's - an untapped mass
market as yet! Hint! :-) 

I've been a Metacard user for years; and Revolution since birth; ridden the
Hypercard and the Supercard rollercoaster; I've seen this list grow from a
few experimenters to the quality list of gurus offering support to the
increasing number of well informed newcomers and converts...

Consequently the volume of the list has increased dramatically, and yes,
what once was an interesting read has transformed into a selective process
of which emails I read and respond to.

I don't know how others feel; Maybe its time to have more specific lists
which Rev users can subscribe to as they wish, allowing individual active
focus groups whilst providing the option of passive participation in other
areas.

As the Rev user base grows so will the list traffic; and yes Rev diversity
is a massive strength, but do we *all* have to discuss every aspect ?
