   Yeah I did get a Mac but can't find  a decent OS X newsreader. I'm   
   currently running Pan under X11.   
      
   Still using the (rebuily) Windows box and Agent from time to time   
   though! Didn't bother putting BeOS back on - I miss it - it was a   
   great OS! I playing around with Libranet which is a great Linux   
   distro.   
      
   Cheers,
