Pointcast is a dog, and a hog. I disconnected it after a few weeks. Everytime I wanted to use my PC, I feared Pointcast would kick in, and it would take me 60 seconds to get it back under control. And the downloads! Fageddabodit. Forever, even over a corporate network with a fast line. Of course now, the pointy-hairs have discovered it, every panelled office has it on screen, and its eating the company's bandwidth alive.

And my.yahoo.com gets me customized data, without the fat graphics, and reloads in seconds.

I don't see Pointcast as a threat to WAVO.
