I vote "Yes" for a group pertaining to: problems with products/services or companies that offer them reviews of single products/services or comparisons among them There should be a moratorium on discussing in this proposed group products/services covered in other groups, e.g., IBM-PC software praise, UNIX 8.3 QSD bugs, complaints about life in general. However, care should be exercised when placing articles about problems with government agencies. These might belong in net.politics or in this new group. I think that the name "net.ripoff" is counter-productive and too specific. Let's call it "net.consumers", or reasonable prefixes thereof. Dave Decot decvax!cwruecmp!decot (Decot.Case@rand-relay)
