After his Pauline reconversion all that remains is for him to
resubscribe to the Avid-L and take his lumps in person :-)
For me the test is whether you were active on the Avid's First Class BBS
that the modem they supplied allowed you to connect to. There are some
names here I recognize from way back then!

Subject: Re: [Avid-L2] AVID kept their promise. - Biscardi blog.
I'm sure Walter is more than capable of defending himself, but I think
Mr.
Biscardi meant he was in the first group of editors introduced to Avid
at CNN, not the first group introduced to Avid ever.
Also, he said it was an older 4 core machine...not an older G4.

believe Avid was at version 6 in 1993... the FIRST version 6... not the
