Re: NEWSWire/400-11.04.98

Jeff,

I do and don't agree with you.  I agree that the News/400 sites are unusable.

I and many on this list use the Midrange site.  No banners, no ads of any kind.
Followable topics.  Bookmarkable posts.  But -- it can be slow, especially in 
the
morning (pacific time).

If you haven't checked it out, I recommend it.  If you have and still don't 
like it,
sorry.  BTW, through Netcom USA, I find the newsgroups too slow for my use as 
well.
The reason I prefer the web forums is that automated software can't scan for 
e-mail
addresses.
