PStJTT gives much more eloquently than I could reason enough to doubt the
wisdom of the proposed split.

If I were a non-48 user, I might be exasperated enough with infinite versions
of Tetris, infinite "How do I find out my ROM version", infinite "Let's flame
HP for giving away equation cards and upgrading old calculators", ad nauseum,
to vote in favor of kicking the 48 users out.  But as a 48 user, the proposed
split does nothing to benefit me or most of the rest of us.  

I'm going to vote against.
