What I'd like to see is a version of the UNIX release ported down to the 
PC so that those who just simply want to use Pine the same way as a Unix 
system does (it reads a mailbox, it writes to a file and then runs a 
program to deliver that file to the mail system), that would be much more 
useful than any of the current PC releases that mandate use of a network 
card and cannot be used otherwise.
