That second clause should have read "there **aren't nearly** as many
separate categories..."

The two problems I have with the "Answers" web is lack of specificity in
the subject, there are near as many separate categories, so there seem to
be a broad mix of questions and subjects in every forum.

The other problem being the "canned" (and sometimes bizarre) answers from
the mods. They also seem to be a little quick on the "Solved" trigger )

You only wish the forums are like the nntp newsgroups. Have you read any
of the answers that the moderators give?

This one closes but it's being replaced with a web-based one. Basically
the same thing except how you access it.

Starting in early summer 2010, Microsoft will begin progressively
closing down the Microsoft public newsgroups to enrich conversations
in the rapidly-growing forum platform. This decision is in response
to worldwide market trends and evolving customer needs.



So THIS newsgroup will close? Sorry to hear that. I am still lurking
although I don't have many questions or answers.
