   I totally agree with the need to split comp.sys.mac. Unless someone has
an inordinate amount of time on his hands it would be very difficult to
keep up with the number of articles in comp.sys.mac.

Here are my suggestions for possible splits:

     printing   {PS questions, compatibility questions, spoolers,
                 batch jobs, printing devices}

     software   {bug reports, game hints, beta-wachouts, PD, shareware,
                 discussion of comp.mac.binaries}

     reviews    {new hardware and software including patches, updates,
                 non-commercial announcements, questions about the
                 "best-thing-for-the-job"}

     flame      {a place for those stupid Rolex watch follow-ups ;) }
