I don't like the antialiased text in netrunner or syncterm, I turn that off but do prefer syncterm over much else... except lately I have been using qodem a lot, mainly because I managed to get Mystic to work with Kermit and qodem handles that superbly, where as syncterm and netrunner doesn't have the capability, yet.

Kermit is way faster to transfer files for me than x/y/zmodem by an order of magnitude, plus in qodem it will render the bbs at _any_ resolution I have the terminal set to, so MRCing in qodem at 160x60 is entirely doable and looks fantastic in mrcX client.

If you want to try syncTERM and wanna build it from source, I have a script that will do it for you (linux of course)...

Hope this helps =)
