Haha, while i'm on my way to bed, google "opera weeklies" new one out tomorrow i think too (well this evening)... Look into oget (coupled with free download manager) and ospell (whatever the latest on is make sure its that i think its 3 or something) as add-ons/UserJS for opera, more than worth the little effort needed installing
Newsgroups are where-ever you like look into signing up to Newshosting though for a decent all round binary newgroup service. I personally use Easynews as it means i don't need to use a new reader all the time (it has full http access to over 40days retention of its binary content, and a bloody good search engine to go with). Where-as Newshosting is just a hosting service nothing fancy, but higher retention, if thats what you want go with it Newsgroups are worth every penny in terms of speed and wealth of content, there is almost anything you can think of on there, you will always download to your lines maximum speed, and there is no sharing involved (so you don't share, and you don't rely on awful people sharing either unlike bittorrent), so best of all scenarios. |

aye, got them add-ons installed on the beta @ home.
and i've still got a fair bit of bandwidth on my 'pay and go' style 17gb sub with astraweb - just wanted to know what the name of the group you'd found it in was so i can get to it a little quicker. |
