Will you guys PLEASE knock it off with the damn thor promotions!  Reading the
AMIGA newsgroups seems to be like a LONG, drawn-out info-mercial.  Sure, thor
is great for a mostly-in-one program, but if one does not want to use a disk
defragmenter after reading each newsgroup, then Thor is simply not a choice!

There is now a newsgroup for Thor, USE IT!  And only tell *newbies* that there
is a choice of Thor.  Thor is EXCELLENT for beginners, but for experienced users,
Thor will only be good for those poor souls who don't have a cheap internetting
solution, such as unlimited time, available to them.  I do indeed feel sorry for
those folks, and hope that cheap internetting soon comes their way.
