- I agree, cross-posting is a problem for the net. I selfishly prefer that the
- net have problems instead of me. Reading all the irrelevant postings is a waste
- of time, and the more of a newbie you are, the harder it is to decide whether a
- Supra-mega-turbo-GXC-QMYDp34++ is relevant to your own computer system. Let's
- give all the newbies a break (that includes me at times, depending on the item
- I'm looking for) and split the group by topic.
