Yep, pictures/files are a big plus for sure. I agree they are certainly
much more active.

If I can do it on my Atari,I'd rather do it there first. (not doing
usenet with one right now because my Mega ST is running the BBS, and
I'm still getting my EtherNat sorted out on my Falcon.) That's just me and
personal preference. I'm not slamming anyone who does it any other way,
its all about personal choice and I certainly respect that. I'm just happy
as a lark to see as many people still supporting/using Atari as we have! :)

Ah, did not know that part of the story... Well, I hope we don't lose him
from the Atari community altogether - he writes some good software. His is
the only updated version of Ultima 3 that I actually got to work from a
hard drive on my STacy.
