I generally have more to do on the alt.gothic heirarchy, where I've been
called EdwardS for nearly a decade! MacSOUP doesn't do personalities as
well as Thoth, Thoth isn't offline... getting a Mac newsreader is a real
PITA for some reason.

This better?

Thoth allowed me to group several NGs in a window. MacSOUP appears to
just have one settings window with all the groups. You can switch
personalities when you make a posting, but I'm amazed that for an OS
based around user-friendliness, Usenet access is really poorly catered
for!

I have one 110v adaptor. It lives in my studio :)

Heh, I should be able to copy disk images to 5.25 on my IIgs
(eventually), then use them on the //c. I guess that my TV can handle
//c NTSC, but IIRC I need a box that clips on the back for that, right?
