First, I read this newsgroup to find out more info on the HP-28s and how
to get better programs for the 28s. I SELDOMLY read the hp48 stuff.
I also do not, or never, plan on getting the 48, the 28 does me just fine
while I was in college and now, but it does reserve me the right to get
something maybe better than 48 someday if I want.

At first, I thought: "I would be great if there would only be a c.s.h.hp28
newsgroup", but how much would be posted to it, a couple bits? Then I hear
that the hp28 once ruled this newsgroup, and now since the 48 is now 
"the handheld" not much other info is found here.  Then again the 48, 
I assume, will not rule forever. I feel something else will come along better,
smaller, just as cheap or affordable.
and that will rule the airwaves.

So my opinion would be NOT to split the 48 into its own newsgroup.

I wouldn't mind the 28 be included with the 48 into an hp newsgroup,
but I do know how other non-hp users feel.

And since this the majority of this newsgroup is 48 stuff, I would
vote NOT to split the newsgroup at all.
