In article <167@mcmi.UUCP> you write:

Our site receives several unix-pc.* groups. Perhaps you should check with
your local news guru about getting them.

Au contraire (sp?). I support several 7300s and 3b2s in our microprocessor
design lab. The 7300s make excellent development stations for doing 68000
related stuff. Our main student workload is carried by the 3b2s. BTW, I also
use an AT&T PC 6300 at home so, I get a lot out of this newsgroup :-).
