Most of the time when I read comp.sys.mac I am not interested in seeing endless streams of advertisements. However, I can see that these messages provide a valuable service to the buyers and sellers of used Mac-related products. It seems to me that a reasonable solution would be to create a new group for this purpose, called (for example) misc.forsale.mac. That way people could conveniently skip over such advertisements except when they were interested in purchasing or selling something. Also, sites could choose whether or not they were interested in carrying advertisements without having to sacrifice all the rest of comp.sys.mac. Bill Lipa [Note followup to news.groups]
