If going to the trouble of creating a group for x86/MSDOS/VGA nitty-gritty
games programmers, why not go whole-hog?  Why limit it to VGA?

How about a news group for VGA, Sound Blasters, reading joystick ports, and
all the other low level things required to write a game for clones?  I find
that that the constant fanning out of groups frequently dilutes the
information by making it necessary to subscribe to a number of groups to catch
the tidbits as they float past.
