A little positive GA news coverage
leaves the question if you can use this with google-groups. but there
have been pointed out many alternatives 2 U. there are many/some free usenet-servers out there for you to use (or for a small fee if you also want binaries), or you VPN back to your office while on the road or at home or you use a mix of both or/and go with your usenet-client on a usb-stick (U3-features). The only reason I switched to Google Groups was because I access these groups from many different computers. After you've used GG for a while, it's actually a very nice interface, with lots of nice search features. I used Outlook Express for years, and its newsreader worked just fine -- killfiles and all. I had hoped to never need that feature... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

2. Most people put Bertie in a killfile long ago, so they don't even
see his tripe. All I 'see' is first the total amount of posts to the group and after clicking into the group the actual amount of posts left over after the filter did his work. Well, whaddya know -- here's a surprise. "Windows Mail" -- Outlook Express' decendent -- comes bundled with Vista, and it's quite a nifty piece of kit indeed. It comes with a slick little built-in newreader that -- in just a few moment's time -- has completely eliminated the Bunyip from every newsgroup on Usenet. Aaaaaahhhhh....it's like a cool dip in the pool on a hot summer's day... ;-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 http://www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Yes, there are weak points, but so does everything else. -- Jim in NC |

Just download the windows-live "tool" (?), it gives you the choices of downloading the latest messenger, mail, etc. indeed. It comes with a slick little built-in newreader that -- in just a few moment's time -- has completely eliminated the Bunyip from every newsgroup on Usenet. this still leaves you with the problem of using your usenet client on different locations and on different computers. So the best way *might* be to put your client on a usb-stick (maybe along with your other important files). #m -- I am not a terrorist http://www.casualdisobedience.com/ |

And I only point out off-topic posting when it is done by hypocrites who bitch about other people doing it. |
