While I can see the argument for splitting the group, the current proposals
seem to share a flaw: most people would sill have to read all if not most of
the subgroups, because most of us are interested in new h/w new s/w have
questions about our s/w etc.
I'd suggest a more functional split dealing with features not everyone
shares (or cares about) e.g.
color(many of us don't have macIIs)
mail/networking/non-standalone(many of us are standalone)
sound(internal - many of us don't hack those sounds)
desktop-publishing(e.g. articles about WORD or MACWRITE or LASERPRINTERS)
with everything else staying in the common group.
Just a passing thought.
