...is $5.99. My opinion is that this "limited time only" price for loyal customers of $8.99 (now $9.99) software, for something functionally unchanged, is excessive. Others will disagree. A 50% of the base price upgrade? Oh well...

Mr Reynolds--2008
This application probably does everything it is intended to do, but I find it hard to tell--as with my car dealership, when I hand the car over to them for maintenance, I do not get it back until it is alleged to have been maintained--but everything is done (or not done) in a completely hidden location. At least at the car dealership I am given an estimate of how long the operation will take.

I like the IDEA of this application, but (although I have paid for it, I am not using it. Unlike the old Speed Disk from Norton, I haven't a clue--or even a colorful graphic interface--to amuse me while it is supposedly defragmenting files--and apparently a 160 GB hard disk can become so fragmented that it can take a day and a night and another day to defragment it. There is a blue line, of course: but after the first six hours or so your attention may wander.

Things as apparently simple as "tuning" the computer for broadband, which do not take so long, are similarly uncommunicative about what they can or will do, or what use the application's efforts are on my behalf. While it may be true that "everybody's somebody's baby," this baby seems too deep for me to understand. "The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in our stars, but in ourselves . . ." I don't regret the money, as clearly the developer has contrived an application full of sound and fury at great effort for him. But I wish it could learn to talk to me.
