Good luck. I don't think it's gonna split, though.

I like it a lot more than I used to. Then again, I wasn't seeing
people with pure-500 and pure-2000 problems then. My kill file now
throws out a non-trivial number of such postings (and it's still
missing some).

Hmm. Who is mike meyers, and what has he done to cause such a
suggestion?

I think the best suggestion (which you didn't pick up) was:

	comp.sys.amiga.hardware, comp.sys.amiga.software

This allows the A500 and A2000 to be split off later if it seems
apropriate.
