I am an old-school Thunderbird user still. It allows me access to Eternal Sept to read this newsgroup. Not even sure if news groups are even used anymore we seem to be a bunch of crazy old cyclist.
 Thunderbird is good but slow and I would possible like to go to Outlook but it will cost $70 a year. What are you all using for your email program and getting the newsgroup. Pretty sure Andrew is doing what I do but maybe not for all email.

Thunderbird is not slow for me.
There was a decade or so when I considered myself as informed as anyone on building, configuring, modifying and repairing computes and in that time I wrote the software my employees used for inventory tracking, customer sales records, payroll and general ledger. That was very long ago and I can't do much with modern systems now; we use a tech service.
After a service call here last week I asked the tech about girlfriend's laptop which I bought new just a few years ago. He said laptops are prone to hard drive degradation which will slow everything. I'm going to drop it off for analysis.
You might get an expert opinion on your own system (including router and modem) before committing to Out House.
