This system offers you a link to International electronic mail (e-mail), as well as access to megabytes of forums, called newsgroups. You will be able to read and post messages to many of over 600,000 computers (and some 3 million users) around the globe. Thousands of messages arrive each day (some 22 megabytes of text, equivalent to about 10,000 type- written pages). We also offer a modest file download section.
