Re: .dsk - What Software??

[jmholmes@swbell.net (John)]

I would probably keep up with the Delphi forums a bit more if there were a way 
to access it using conventional UseNet newsgroups software.  

Especially for those of us who had to really search around to find a windows 
(or other OS) equiv to the unix tin software, the approach using IE, 
Nutscrape, or anything else just doesn't quite cut it. 

No, I'm not that old (33), but I am somewhat set in my ways after having so 
much of the Unix style software being so much a part of my life for so many 
years...
