The entry in the official newsgroup listing from Gene Spafford says:

  comp.sys.tahoe  CCI 6/32, Harris HCX/7, & Sperry 7000 computers.

Another source of confusion is that when Berkeley ported 4.3BSD over to run
on the Tahoe hardware, they released a new set of sources and called the
distribution "4.3-Tahoe".  (It also includes various bug fixes to the
utilities.)

So, this group was set up to discuss problems/experiences of running Unix
on the Tahoe hardware, but hardly anybody is posting.
