They've certainly generated enough (very useful) volume here to fill a 
group.... but there really hasn't been that much ps/2 and rt stuff to
wade thru.  As I see it, we could either split, or just put appropriate
stuff in our Subject lines.... If we do split, I think "risc6000" would
be the more appropriate name, as some Aussies have pointed out....

I'll be happy split or no, as long as Austin stays on the net with all
that good advice...
