   It's Usenet; all I need from a Usenet reader is for it to post, read and   
   filter garbage. I'm sure that the new version is more stable, but there   
   are other problems it could fix which would be of higher priority for me.   
   For example, the way the software manages colours is just awful. It never   
   fits the system's theme.
