    I find that the new UKRNEWS and its headlines is pretty good
    with quick links to the full articles.

    Yuk, I'm not keen on that sort of content, because the process of following links is actually quite tedious. :(

    OpneXP can handle hotlinks, no problem. ;)

    Most of the time, the brief synopsis of the news item is
    enough. I don't bother visiting the links too much.

    Since you like the offline approach, you should give OpenXP a
    try.

    It can also handle email and nntp areas too.

    My Fido upstream is also great (hi Vorlon), known him

    Fidonet. Sure, there's cesspit sysop echos, but there are
    good echos on Fidonet, among the dead wood.
