Ok mru is now 576, mru 536.
Cps wasaround 350 average and just recently had started to drop below 200.
Now starts at around 400-600 and increases steadily as more articles are
downloaded. Not had many articles to download (logging on too often) but
cps has passed 1100 at least once and looks as if it would (given enough
time get past the pre-news-upgrade 1240cps (14400 moden - unmodified STe
serial port).

Of course this *does* give me a major problem. The news is downloading fast
enough for me not to have a good long chat on IRC. :(
Guess I'd better subscribe to a few more newsgroups! 

Ok... From HTML to news to IRC... Anyone out there waiting to take the
thread even further off topic? ;v)
