I canceled the last message.  I got good and bad mail about it.  Let
me rephrase it:

MCIBTYC (My Computer Is Better Than Your Computer) and "Is Piracy OK?"
are two truly important topics of discussion and are very worthy of as
much net.bandwidth as possible.  The problem is that as long as those
topics are held within newsgroups such as comp.sys.amiga,
comp.sys.mac, etc they can't possibly get the full attention that they
deserve.

Maybe the solution is to create a newsgroup (or multiple newsgroups,
since there are more than one topic) specifically for those topics?
Maybe someone can come up with some other way to deal with this?
Also, to anyone that is against such an idea, consider that it would
mean less clutter in your favorite technical newsgroup.

What do others think?
