Once again I reiterate my plea for net.micro.lisa as the Lisa/MacIntosh
newsgroup.

1. net.micro.68k is MUCH too wide

2. net.micro.apple is MUCH too irrelevant

3. net.micro.apple.68k is MUCH too misleading

4. net.micro.apple.[lisa,mac] is MUCH too constrictive

Come on! After a year or so of debate the machines are going to be obsolete!
Naming the group net.micro.lisa (after "Lisa Technology" not the Lisa) puts
the discussion in an area separate from the apple and 68k discussions and
into an area where the REAL difference between these machines and all the
others is highlighted - I refer to their user interface and OS technology.
