This may be true for the posters to this newsgroup, since most of them will
probably be from the US, but I'm quite sure that the majority of users
*worldwide* has a dial-up connection for which they pay by time. (Which also
means that a news reader that doesn't support offline reading will be pretty
useless for them. This is a feature that *really* matters - apart from
stability and performance of course.)
