    I disagree here. What you describe there is a relatively impractical
expectation. Most of the more powerful apps that I've ever used were all
awkward at first and took some getting used to. X-News is my most recent
jaunt. I remembered putting it aside a couple times but decided to give it
a chance this time around and had a much better time of it. TB! was rather
nice and this was relatively easy because I had used so many clients
before it. The Unix way of doing things seems better in any respects  but
believe me, it doesn't come naturally at first. You simply have to *grow*
to love it, especially if you are used to Windows.
