         A great starter system for students who need an affordable yet
reliable machine. This IBM system, complete with MS DOS 5.0, provides the basic
operating environment for many applications. The presence of a math coprocessor
will speed up programs which use floating point operations such as graphic,
spreadsheet, or math intensive programs. Great for word processing and writing
source code to be compiled. Coupled with a modem (optional) for communications
you could be set for a good school year.

The best way to do this is to get a PostScript emulator
on the computer the printer is connected to. For a PC
or a MAC there are a couple of commercial products. Sun
is offering NeWSprint for their print engine and a lot
of other pixel engines, including, I believe, a few
dot-matrix printers.

If you want to spend even less money, get ghostscript from
your nearest GNU archive.


>Or HP-PCL, HP-GL?

HP-PCL would probably have to built into the printer.

I'm not sure, but I believe there are also some commercial
emulation packages for HPGL.

Organization: UUNET Technologies - Falls Church, VA
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 1992 22:02:17 GMT

For some reason many sites like calling UUNET at 10 minutes past
the hour.  Simple assumptions about how people use cron would
suggest that people would call normally on the hour or half hour,
but for some reason we see a surge at 10 past the hour.

Possible reasons:

	- Most UUCP administrators think alike.
	- Some OS vendor gives an example crontab entry that calls
		other sites at 10 past the hour.
	- There are subliminal messages in the O'Reilly book making
		UUCP administrators think that 10 past the hour is
		the best time to call another site.

Who knows?  I think the third is the real cause since we ship the
Nutshell book to all of our new customers.  ;^)

My suggestion to every site calling UUNET between 10 and 15 minutes
past the hour is to randomly generate a number between 0 and 59 and
call at that time past the hour instead.

Just FYI.

You hit it on the nose with door number 2.  Sun ships their sample
crontab with 10 after the hour.  We do not call you at 10 after because
I guessed that a lot of people would use the sample Sun crontab unmodified.

I notice that many people who call twice set their 
polls exactly 30 minutes apart. I would suggest that to
further add to "random" calling, if you poll twice,
you should pool at 25 or 35 minutes apart. (Or
23 and 37, or whatever!)

For example, if xzaphod is concerned about the :00,
then perhaps calling at :20 and :45, or :12 and :48,
or...? My point is that to further help the randomness 
fo the whole situation, consider that most sites poll
either once an hour at :10 after, or 
twice an hour appx 30 minutes apart.

Anyway, I thought I would suggest this, since if you
are going to bother with resetting your crontab
entries, you might as well do a complete job of it.

Just my $0.02

P.S. I have noticed better throughput recently, so perhaps
several Sysadmins have heeded the :10 past warning!
I think that's great news. Thanks for the feedback uunet!
