The point is that I can choose between several newsreaders and pick
the one I like best. And since Usenet is a protocol, not an
application, I could even write my own reader. The one I am using now
can be operated completely through the keyboard, which I like a lot.
Try that with a web forum.

Of course they do, but since they introduce more problems than they
solve, the money is wasted, in my opinion.
If only they could add an NNTP interface to the software they are
using. Shouldn't be too difficult.

By my standards, it is very responsive. After flying the 450 for a
while, the Raptor 50 felt like a bus. Even after changing the Raptor's
mixer arm length to the "extreme 3D" setting, it is still not as quick
as the 450.
