	Pine works just fine on MacOS X.  It is a full {Free|Net|Open}BSD 
userland, with a Mach kernel, plus some Apple proprietary I/O 
subsystems for things like the filesystem.  The vast, vast majority 
of *nix applications will compile and run without any changes 
whatsoever on MacOS X.

	So, saying "I use pine" is not necessarily mutually exclusive 
with "Try Eudora".
