Phil,

Levy asked"

<< so great about classic that beta does not have? >>

You responded:

<< Simplicity. And with "Browsemaster", the ability to download a hundred messages at a time. >>

I totally agree with both of your responses. I might also add that "Browsemaster" (with Classic) has a number of additional subtle features that make reading and posting much more efficient and usable.

I participated in the Beta several months ago. I've followed this thread since. I'm pleased with the progress made in cleaning up the new interface. I occasionally use the new interface as objectively as possible. I still find it falls far short of Classic (with "Browsemaster").

"Browsemaster" improved on a good basic application to a much greater degree than the new interface does.
