Good Usenet client for binaries on Ubuntu ( like Xnews )

I've been an Xnews user for many years.

The reason I'm not switching all of my computers to Ubuntu is that I cannot find a decent Usenet client for binary files.

Any sugggetions ?

Don't be put off by the default theme. Switch it to plush. It is much prettier. – LunchMoney – 2009-09-12T16:29:06.330
