- OK, OK....
- I want this group to be split.
- This should solve most (if not all) problems and keep most people happy.
-
- Split this group into...
- misc.forsale.ibm
- misc.forsale.atari-amiga (not too many of each so shouldn't be a problem)
- misc.forsale.others (ie any computers which aren't the above)
- misc.forsale.hardware (anything which might be for any computer)
-
- The idea is to post computers and computer specific stuff to the appropiate
- group (one of the first three).
- Anything which may be used on any computer (eg hard disks, printers etc)
- only be posted to misc.forsale.hardware.
- This means there will be NO NEED to crosspost anything.
- It will also mean each group will be easy to read whatever newsreader you
- have.
-
- EXAMPLE
- Say you want to sell a scsi hard disk, one which will work on any computer.
- No problem. Post the ad to misc.forsale.hardware.
- Say you want anything for IBM computers.
- No problem. Simply read misc.forsale.ibm and misc.forsale.hardware.
-
- It couldn't be easier!!!
-
- Post votes (ie agree or disagree) to me and I will post the results after a
- few days. Also post any comments to me.
- (I realise that I might regret this later!!)
