Networking falls into both hardware and software, and is its own thing, and specific enough I wanted to ask what you guys think about making a separate section for it.

Some posts could fit into either hardware or software, but in networking, it would fit perfectly.

What are your thoughts?

It might open the door for more and more sections. Often when discussing networking, we talk of hardware or software, e.g. MacTCP for software, or a network adapter for hardware. Same goes for any other peripheral and many other kinds of software types.

Nothing against it, but I like the simplicity of S7T as it currently is.

Thanks for your input, ShinobiKenobi, but I think it fits quite well into the "Operating System" category like the info text for that category is defined right now.

Discussion covering System 7 itself, including system extensions, control panels, and configuring.

Since networking in System 7 is handling system extensions, control panels and configuring the thing. And networking is pretty much a OS thing, I would say :)

That makes sense.
