As stated at http://itim.tamu.edu/htmlfs/changes/gigabyte092002.shtml, the content for this is now long deleted from the web server. This raises the question: what we do with broken links here? They're clearly no use pointing to non-existent pages, but is an entry in here worth having if there's nothing to link to? I'm tempted to say "yes", and just remove the links on dead stories that can't be found. Comments?
