Sadly ?Xnews" for Windows hasn?t been updated in 15 years, it was pretty good when I
was using it for a short while. It?s old enough now that it?s ontopic for this list, if
you use the lists original definition of ?classic?, which was more than 10 years old.
I like ?Unison? on the Mac side, but it?s another one that hasn?t seen an update in
years.
On UNIX, I?ve been using ?tin" for nearly 30 years.
At this point, I wouldn?t recommend trying to read USENET on OpenVMS, there are a couple
readers, but they?re even older than ?Xnews?.
I?m not sure what?s currently available for AmigaOS, TOS, RiscOS, or Haiku (BeOS).
Did USENET news readers exist for IBM Mainframes?
