I just need to upgrade to 10.6 (I've had the box for over a year) so I can try Giganews' new Mimo client since it's a Mac application.

I tried Mimo last week. I think it was about 5 minutes before I uttered the word CR4P and promptly removed it from my system. I found it lousy.
I got to know and love NL so anything else is going to have a hard time making me change. Having to boot up WIN7 in Parallels is worth it.
I think I have worked out why my speed it reduced when using SSL. I expect on a 20Mb/s connection it would have no impact on my machine either, maybe even 50.
