A J BENAMU  I actually have tried it and can tell that it is useless for now, it doesn´t know how to deal with binaries, Newsreader are not only for text, there are thousands of binaries newsgroups.

So for now, as I said before, it is totally useless for a power user.

MALCOM  I'm sorry but nemo does not support binaries group and there will be not any planned support for them at this time. I've created it for text groups only as like MacSoup for example. A great binary newsgroup reader is Unison from Panic, and I don't think it's a great idea (at this time) spend time in making a concurrent program for a good existing program.

SCOTTISHWILDCAT  A bit strong, perhaps-- I consider myself a power user of usenet, and have never used a binary newsgroup in my life!

G7  Well, it looks good, but I cannot send anything. It says: "Cannot post in server: subject required", although I am certain I *do* have the subject entered. I remember contacting the developer about the same issue in one of the previous versions. It was fixed... but apparently the bug crawled out again.

Anyway, nemo has one great advantage over Thunderbird or Unison: when I click its icon, it just launches. Both Thunderbird and Unison jump in the Dock... and jump... and jump... before they actually manage to start up.

After trying several times, nemo finally realised I have the subject entered (clicking the subject and pressing the Enter key a few times seems to do the trick, not always though), allowing me to send the test article. However, the subject line was sent incorrectly and turned into total garbage.

Well... Nemo has clearly a long way to go before it turns into a useful newsreader. I'm not giving any rating, it would be unfair - it's still a beta version, after all.

SPICCIO  it's a great program, it's still in beta but it's very promising; with a new release each week with lots of improvements it could become one of the best newsgroups reader for Mac.

Ease to use and simple UI.

REPIS  Nice Mac friendly app, but it's still too buggy. To much wasted space (ie. in themes), bugs in encoding and threading (which should be priority for a newsgroup reader.) ect... I don't recommend it for now.

MACKRICK  After a long time in Private Beta at last the public gets to see all the hard work by Malcom.

In my opinion this is how all applications look. Functional, fast, user friendly and sympathetic to the Apple OS.

Congratulations on the Public release.

POSA  One of the best apps of the year.

Before a long time of obscuring and underground developing, finally Malcom has released the first Nemo public beta.

Support this apps and the hard work of Malcom.

Vai, continua cosi' Malcom, buon lavoro!

MALCOM  first is referred to the "textual" features of the program. Yeah I know that Unison is out by years but it's made especially for binaries group while nemo is made around the "textual-side" of the readers.

I'm sorry about my mistake.

MARIUS_TH  And then there's also Unison, which has been on the market for quite a long while and a couple of others, so I wouldn't say this is the first Newsgroups/Usenet reader for MacOS X.

Other then that it seems like a neat app for a 0.5 release.
