[Gllug] Do modern webpages kill older laptops/PCs?

[James Holland]

Would anyone care to explain to me (gently!) why all the fuss about top
posting? I read my email using the preview pane in Evolution and its
much easier to read if someone top-posts rather than having to scroll
down through the quoted bit that you've read already! I know it was the
norm in usenet days pre-Outlook, but why now??
