You forgot one I'd really like to see:

   comp.sys.handhelds.but.not.bloody.hp

For those of us who like to read about other machines.  *NOT* that I
have anything against HP machines, BTW.  I'm sure that if I had a HP48
I'd love all the interesting things about them that appear in this
group.  Unfortunately, I know myself well enough to realise that if I
had a HP48, I'd spend hundreds of ultimately non-productive hours
fiddling with it, so I've avoided the whole notion like the plague.
