&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;Basically, Speed Factory just dropped Giganews (which was insanely slow) and
&gt; &gt;have implemented their own news server that retrieves articles from groups
&gt; &gt;people actually read. When you request the articles from a group, if no one
&gt; &gt;has done so already, the server will automatically start caching articles
&gt; &gt;from that group.

&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;I use Bellsouths newsservers quite a bit for binaries, can someone
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;comment on Speedfactory or SnappyDSL's newsfeeds?
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;      
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt; &gt;&gt;Can't help you on that on, I don't do binary news. :)

&quot;All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological
personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the
corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become drunk on violence, a
condition to which they are quickly addicted.&quot;
