Mmmm, I think the distinction is clear:

"comp.sys.amiga.hardware": discussions about MMU:s, where to get them,
what they cost, how to install them without bending their pins etc. 

"comp.sys.amiga.programmer": Discussions about programming MMU:s, special
instructions for MMU:s etc. 

I think the ".hardware" and ".programmer" split is a good one. It works
really well for "comp.sys.mac", for example.
