AmiTCP 4.0 Demo.  What I would like to know is what software would i
need to be able to read the Newsgroups as in my previous Shell 
account?

  If you let the amitcp demo install napsaterm, then just type
napsaterm your.provider
  or just type telnet your.provider
    then select "tin" or whichever

  If you want to read newsgroups via AMosaic, put a setenv
NNTPSERVER your.news.provider in s/user-startup

  Hope this is good news, heh *slap*
