Just clearing out my "dead groups?" folder, where I move 'groups which
seem to have no traffic. Is this one truly dead?

Yours is the first post for a very long time. Most uk computer questions
come up in uk.comp.homebuilt or, bizarrely, uk.d-i-y.

I thought this one was a bit dead. I suspect it's a matter of what other
'groups we take: I don't take any other uk.comp ones (apart from the two
uk.comp.net-client ones, which really are dead).
