I've learnt to _love_ it when you switch 'identity' with a mail open and
then it seems to close down but refuses to open the other identity!

You learn to use task manager a lot!

And I think it's _really_great_ that it downloads my news again and again.

I'm only playing with it since I use RISC OS for news and e-mail, but
Thunderbird (free) seems so much better.

Always wanted to play with it but the hardware is unobtanium in the
US. Can't be as cool as a Symbolics Lisp Machine though, can it?

There is an emulator available which allows most of the progs to be run on
a PC. Or get a secondhand machine shipped from the UK - plenty on Ebay.
They tend to be very reliable.

It had a rather larger share of the UK market at one time. And is still
being actively developed in both hardware and software. I stick with it
for the things it does better than a PC - or more likely to save having to
learn new software for 'old' tasks.
