Oh dear. I have no issue with a modular tool -- but if the BEST choice he can find for it does not even have auto-spell checking that is sad. Heck, I am using the world's crappiest news reader, a nearly 10 year old program made by MS for the Mac (Entourage). I really should at least move to Thunderbird or SOMETHING, but I openly admit there are no good newsreaders for the Mac. I do not feel the need to pretend the Mac is good at all things. If he admits Linux is doing a poor job for him, too, then no big deal... but I find Linux users all too often feel the need to support the cult-like nonsense which is all too common in that group. -- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity.
