 MF>[CONS]
 MF>No support for USB printers.

I've included this in the table (I've allowed "wireless printers" to be  
part of USB), and have applied a reference to the hack solution.


 MF>[PROS]
 MF>Automatic nodelist/pointlist updating.

That, I have noticed.  Very nice.  Once configured, never have to bother  
with separate tasks like "compiling".


 MF>Real-time language switching to/from English/German.

Really? WHERE is that?


 MF>Multi-Quote replying.

What is so particular about that?   Is there a specific setting/config for  
that?


 MF>Twit filter.

Albiet, limited to "fully listed" or manually added names: "fname  
lname@z:nnn/nnn.p"


 MF>Show hex dumps of messages.

WHERE is that?


 MF>Supports collection of identical echos from multiple Boss Nodes.

I bet you really like that, to compare feeds from multiple boss nodes?


 MF>Fully integrated email/news clients(POP3, SMTP, NNTP, SSL/TLS, IPv4,
 MF>IPv6)

That is rather cool.  Therefore, OXP could be a quite nice all-in-one kind  
of solution for someone.  But personally, t-bird or similar Windows prog  
is the better tool for email and nntp, IMHO.   ;)

Practically ALL of your PROs and CONs observations are now included in the  
table:

Since the list was quite long, I grouped your submissions as per  
"function" and separated the new groupings a bit for better readability.
