It seems reasonable to start a notesfile devoted to an insanely
popular product.  I would classify the telebit modem as an insanely
popular 9600 baud modem.

Notesfiles devoted to the macintosh have already expanded into 7
separate groups (main/programmer/sources/binaries/hypercard/aux/digest)
Therefore, it is probably reasonable create one group for telebit modems.

On the other hand, I believe notesfiles should spawn when the traffic
becomes unbearably heavy and IRRELEVENT to many readers (such
as a/ux traffic, or programmer questions for the macintosh).  Has the
traffic about telebit modems become unbearably heavy?
