Subject: Google's Usenet history


Google now has an archive of Usenet messages dating back to 1981...one of
the most complete.  They have a timeline you can view and read messages,
like the first one mentioning Microsoft, or the first review of an IBM PC.
This link I'm adding at the bottom is a neat one to read, it's from a hacker
in Finland who's name is Linus and he has a new operating system he's
building.  This is his first announcement of it, and he's trying to recruit
hackers to help him get it up and running.  One day this will be Linux as we
know it.
