Wasn't Thoth created with stolen code, or something to that effect? There's no way in hell you could convince me to switch to a Windows news client. I'm loving slrn with vim as a replacement, so far. I'm very much a power user though, and am very comfortable using command-line tools. But if power features are what you appreciate, slrn is definitely worth a look, IMO. -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter. I often ignore posts from Google.
