	The current newsgroups should remain intact. I think the discussion was 
to create a new group based on older, unsupported hardware. A suggestion 
was made for people to direct questions for current Macs or Apple//

	Actually, if nobody has done so already I think I'll post a request for 
discussion to the group at large on this subject.
