I think we should have a GS specific newsgroup. It's always been my view that
the GS was hurt by its association with the AppleII. In particular, the GS
was way ahead of its time for "multimedia" applications, but people kept
insisting on using it as an AppleII with a zillion tricks to run 50
partitions for ProDOS.
 
In short, since Apple has stopped making it, we should perhaps start
calling it a GS and have a comp.sys.GS newsgroup.

The big question is when?
