OnyX CommentaryBeware of VT's star averages ("This version" and "All Time") - Version: 1.9.6, 7/30/2008 10:37AM PST

Doctor J
The averages can be seriously biased by uninformed reviews, such as the one recently posted for Onyx. This is especially true for newly released products or versions, when there are not many reviews.

It is important to read the reviews, to make sure that they raise pertinent issues.

OnyX ReviewBest Yet! - Version: 1.9.6, 7/30/2008 04:46AM PST

This is clearly the best product out there for it's purpose. I have found no product that does a better job. So far I have been using Onyx since I only used Jaguar, then Panther and now Leopard. I still run all three OSs and am thrilled to know that the developer still provides this app for all of the latest OS versions. Most devolopers shut you out once the OS is upgraded, but these guys are phenomenal. 5 Stars all the way (and I don't give out stars easily)!
