Panic’s Unison has been updated to version 1.7.9. The new version is available for download now and is a free update for registered users. Unison costs $24.95.
Unison enables Mac OS X users to read Usenet newsgroups. The Usenet is a collection of thousands of discussion groups; it’s one of the oldest parts of the Internet. Many of the groups focus on file sharing, and that’s one of Unison’s specialties.
Unison 1.7.9 fixes a bug introduced with the last version specifically in Intel Macs that could cause downloads to be slow.
