I say split the group.  When I come back from a weekend, and I get
a message like this:

	comp.sys.mac		217 unread articles ...

I just 'c' the whole group.  Most days I just 'c' the whole group because
it has over 60 articles.  Who has time to look at every title, even
using the '=' key?  Not only that, but subjects wander even with the
subject line staying the same so you can't always tell what the subject
is from the subject line!
