Current user trends to "put everything in one big app" are stupid, not only because a) you don't have that much memory and b) you can't do two things at once anyway, even if your Amiga can. Downloading news will cripple your web connection, browsing the web means you can't read news.. so why not close your browser and fire up Newsrog? Voyager is not about to become the next Netscape 6.2 by integrating an entire application framework into itself, and boasting mail/news/irc and christ knows what other badly coded crap. I'm certain from experience V has it's own fair share of badly coded crap inside it, adding more from AmIRC or MD2 would slow down the eventual replacement of such crap with bugfixed versions :) -- Matt _____________________________________________________________________ Voyager Mailing List - http://v3.vapor.com/ Voyager FAQ....: http://faq.vapor.com/voyager/ Listserver Help: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=HELP Unsubscribe....: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=UNSUBSCRIBE
