   I have finally figured out how to read my mail in emacs and I think that
   reading my news in emacs would probably be equally fantastic.  Can I read
   news via nntp like rrn?  That's what I currently use, but would like to
   try emacs gnews.  Thanks in advance...

Yes, you can read news in emacs and it is probably the nicest and most
convenient way to do it. Still I would use emacs GNUS rather that
gnews (both are newsreaders for emacs but they are not the same
program). Have a look at both. You can find them via anon ftp at
tut.cis.ohio-state.edu.  There are newsgroups for both:
"gnu.emacs.gnus" and "gnu.emacs.gnews".
