Hello NeXT Enthusiasts:

Here is a quick way to split up the Next b-board.

Just divide it in two:

1)comp.sys.next.questions_and_announcements

and 

2)comp.sys.next.answers_and_opinions


Users would consult #1)  for new questions and announcements.  And
could skip over all the messages which start Re: .....  about
subjects which they care little about  For some of these which they
do car about, users would find them in #2).

I estimate that almost 80% of the current posting traffic is of the
form Re:.......!  Which I pretty much skip over quickly if I'm not
interested in the subject (such as the in-depth discussions into which 
has a better price/performance ratio: NeXT or Commadore 64)


Just a thought,

Keith
