Lately comp.sys.amiga.tech has been flooded with postings that seem to
follow one of a few basic topics:
 
"My hard drive doesn't work!  What's wrong?"
"Will hard drive X work with memory expansion Y [and software Z]?"
"My computer doesn't work!  What's wrong?"
 
May I suggest that although these may have been appropriate for
comp.sys.amiga.tech back when you were expected to build your own HD or
memory expansion, and there was a very select group of people who could
help with questions like this, that these are now very general subjects
that should be reserved for comp.sys.amiga?
 
Maybe it's just the news software I'm using here that makes me wade
through all the articles (ah, for a "K"!), but I can remember when .tech 
contained mostly articles with hardware and software discussions on
topics that most Amiga people *didn't* know.
