I can't speak for Kenneth, but one thing I find is that there are very little comparative descriptions (or else I haven't found them). This makes it a bit hard to decide, say, which news transport I want. Each of them says basically "this is a better news transport program, replaces c-news". But which one should I get for my system? (Home computer, regularly dials into two ISPs, doesn't feed anyone.) Is that roughly what you were complaining about? Jiri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
