If I have a question about a hard disk, A/UX or ethernet or a third party package should that be going on here? Why fracture the group into smaller areas, which means more notes files to read unless it is on a topic which is large enough to support its own conversations a la Hypercard. Ie comp.sys.mac. .monitors .harddisks .memory .languages .wordprocessing .DTP .desktopcommunications .surveys .hiIamnew2themac .rumors .thirdpartyperipherals seems like an awfull lot of fragmentation to me. Perhaps someone should explain what is "supposed to be" being discussed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- David L.
