 Which is where this should have been left to begin with.

 Please, I don't care about the Macintosh... I don't want to hear about the
Macintosh.  If I do, I shall read comp.sys.mac.*.

 I also don't wish to read about the IBM when I'm reading comp.sys.mac.*.

 This kind of stuff belongs in an appropriate group, and not in a 'misc'
group.

 In conclusion, while I'm sure a lot of work went into gathering this
information, I feel you're doing the net a disservice by posting it to the
comp.sys.ibm.pc.* groups, or to any other group but comp.sys.mac.advocacy,
or perhaps some kind of useless facts group.

 Just my opinion, and opinions vary.
