I am surprised you weren't a member already. It has its academic side, assuredly, but the practical benefits for the serious user of UNIX are there as well. <BR/><BR/>This was the first "computer organization" I joined, maybe in 1991(?). Its high-water mark has not been reached by any others, although the ACM might give it strong competition. I don't feel myself to be enough of an engineer or computer scientist to join the ACM, but perhaps that will change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088979.post-1153876216277195262006-07-25T21:10:00.000-04:002006-07-25T21:10:00.000-04:00It's about time Richard!I joined a while back, and...<B>It's about time Richard!</B><BR/><BR/>I joined a while back, and thoroughly enjoy login. . . <BR/><BR/>I find the content enormously interesting. . . the book reviews, comparing technologies, 'how to utilize this pkg to do this', etc.<BR/><BR/>I think it has a lot less academic feel to it than you say though. Think about recent articles like using rcs as a sysadmin. . .<BR/><BR/>I agree that the cost of USENIX membership is well-worth it for login alone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
