Why not start a comp.sys.att.3b2?  The same could be said of the 6300
and 6300+ as for the UNIX pc - except there is already an alternate
network in place for the discussion of UNIX pc topics, and it probably 
doesn't make sense to start another new group for a dead product.

Check out news.lists, I think, for the info about alternate news
hierarchies.  The unix-pc.* groups are carried by a lot of machines
and are geared specifically for the 3B1/7300.  You've probably seen
a lot of messages cross-posted. 

BTW, although many of the UNIX pc owners I know have their machines
strictly for personal use, many more are using their machines in
or for business or development purposes.

Also BTW, I am one 3B1 owner who *is* interested in 3B2 machines,
since I also work with one of those.  

Doesn't this discussion belong in news.groups or something?
