[2] Forewords
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey, what's this?! TWO issues of VEXNEWS on the very same day? Yeah, seems
like it! Let's chock everyone and do something unexpected I thought, as
always, and there was more things to tell as the day passed by which was
not included in the previous issue. I hope everyone is looking forward to
find these qute little newsletters dropping down in the mailbox, so here's
another one! We're not a weekly, biweekly or monthly publication in any
way, we do exactly as we want, as we always have done, and you never know
when to expect a new issue.... ;-)

of the previous issues of the newsletter. Follow the instructions below and

[4] Notes about the WWW site
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The WWW site announced in VEXNEWS #4 is _not_ accessable from CAB due to
it's limits and that it doesn't support the password protection. There was
no way around this unfortunately, and therefore CAB users must use the FTP
site instead until CAB get's updated.
There are a also number of sites that will permit public Lynx access via
telnet and a guest account, for those who _really_ want to use WWW.
sailor.lib.md.us (login as 'guest') ver. 2.7.1
public.sunsite.unc.edu (login as 'lynx') ver. 2.5
cwispub.unh.edu (login as 'cwispub') ver. 2.7
trfn.clpgh.org (login as 'trfn') ver. 2.6
lynx.cc.ukans.edu (login as 'lynx') ver. 2.5
philadelphia.libertynet.org (login as 'liberty' no password)
[5] Vectronix is the Number #1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vectronix would like to thank everyone who voted for us in the Undercover
Magazines voting chart. We are honoured by the first place and it
encourages us to continue supporting the atari scene. Thanx to everyone,
keep up the good work!
We'll see if there will be any more cracking charts in coming UCM issues
though as some people seems to think it does not belong in a scene
magazine. We think it's a weird point of view as without the underground
scene there would be no atari scene to speak about at all!
Maybe a cracking chart is not needed because there is not many active
groups left today, but that's a completely different story....
We are still honoured though, no matter what, and it feels great that you
guys are still trusting in us. Thank you all!
[6] New PacifiST Mailinglist
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

These words are coming from Rich, the owner of the Little Green Desktop WWW
page which deals with PacifiST related things, and also the owner of this
new mailinglist. If you're interesting in PacifiST it's recommended to sign
