I am switching from a Macintosh to Windows Vista. What is a good usenet
newsreader program? Also, other than Outlook 2007, what do people
recommend for checking email?
My advice is to stick with Windows Mail, which comes with Vista, for
both E-mail and Newsgroups. You don't have to use it forever, but your
life will be complicated enough getting started with Vista without
also adding additional third-party programs.
Once you get comfortable with using Vista, if you'd like to explore
alternatives to Windows Mail, fine. But rather than ask the advice of
other people, what I recommend is that you try several of the
available choices (most are either freeware or shareware that comes
with a free trial) and see which meet *your* needs the best.
