Most of the ones on OnSale and eBay fall into this category. My feeling is that they have to be pretty populous and pretty current, or there wouldn't be qestions about MILO and ARC still being posted to the -alpha list... if they weren't an issue, then the questions would have already faded away. Instead, it seems to me that the people asking the questions are being beaten away with a stick. Intimidating people into not asking is not the same as them not asking on their own.
