I hope you find this list useful. Let me know if you do and I will publish more lists. If there is a particular class of acronyms that you would like listed, please tell me, otherwise I will just pick one at random. If I get no responses, I will assume that no one wants to see this stuff and I will come up with other article topics.
Ken Hopkins has been involved with computers since the early seventies and has collected more computer information than he is willing to admit. The hardest part of writing an article can be coming up with a topic. Help by sending your topic ideas to hopkins@hopkinscomputing.com
