That is what I cannot understand: why would a major OS have almost NO NNTP 
clients?  Hell, Linux has a ton of them, Windows still have a lot, mostly 
Agent.  MacOS has always seemed to be behind on that front.  I guess that 
MacOS users are mostly into photo apps and music/video stuff and not the 
old stuff like USENET readers!  My favorite NNTP app was NR/2 that came 
with my OS/2 Warp Connect.  White text on blue background, fast and very 
readable.  No binaries, but back then, binaries were only for porn 
addicts!
