     Had not considered the idea of possible lost Apple II-related posts! It makes
sense, though.

     People generally avoid hopping between groups when they can. So, since many of
the people who read the new group will have the necessary A2 expertise, it would
figure that some A2 questions and discussions might well move there. Instead of one
strong A2 group, we could easily end up with two weakies.

     The current setup works well; and, there is already a FAQs for Apple III. Anyone
who feels like it could create an Oldie Macs FAQs or Lisa FAQs. 

     Basically, there seems to be no need for a new group.
