I don't think you're the exception. That's my sole purpose in this group,
too. And while that is a reason for the new groups, it's not the reason
that will make me vote for them. The reason is all the people that *don't*
have hp48s. I know if I had another calculator, I'd be pretty damn pissed
about having to sift through all this stuff every day. It's not fair for
the hp48 users to monopolize the group. How many non-hp48 owners have been
chased away by the current situation? How many that are still holding on
wouldn't like a group that helps them out a bit? Create the groups and give
these people a break.
