If anything, comp.sys.amiga.video might be nice.  I don't think c.s.amiga.games
was such a good idea, really - I mean, yes, it's good to have so much of the
games stuff off the main newsgroup, but on the other hand no other computer
has a game group of it's own... kinda sets the Amiga apart in perhaps a way it
shouldn't be distinguished.  Oh, well, maybe it's just my paranoia.

If there's any response to this suggestion of a Video-related newsgroup, I'll
see if I can make a serious application for it.
