I sure wouldn't mind that.  Perhaps the time has come to split the group,
(but into what? :)  or at least to define more clearly what is appropriate.
IMHO HW specific issues don't belong here - algorithms, techniques etc. for
creating games do.  A quick 'grep pc' (a little modified) on my .newsrc file
reveals:

comp.ibm.pc.hardware! 1-4
comp.sys.ibm.pc! 1-13285
comp.sys.ibm.pc.games! 1-46
comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware! 1-21653
comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc! 1-18011
comp.sys.ibm.pc.programmer! 1-2129
comp.sys.ibm.pc.soundcard! 1-14

(Strange, there's no comp.sys.ibm.pc.programmer.games.hardware.vga :)


Kind regards,
