Mac OSX 10.5.8??? - Version: 2.8.1, 9/2/2009 11:25AM PST

I only get a dialog box when starting the application SpeedTools 2.8.1. - Running OSX 10.5.8.

In trying to get in touch with the developers all I get are database PHP errors (and the SQL calls). It seems the database has crashed and long ago been left to smolder. There is no eMail or Forum to get these guys to respond.

This product is a SCAM... - Version: 2.8.1, 8/7/2009 08:38AM PST

Why does Version Tracker continue to list this product? Intech Software has obviously reaped almost $3 Million in sales (according to the download numbers listed here) and has decided to keep taking orders but will not live up to their lifetime of updates. None of their contact information works and when you try to download updates they just keep asking for your Credit Card number so they can bill you again.

Someone please prove me wrong!

FYI if you want to look at the User Forum for this developer it seems that there is NO SEPARATE Signup for it. Either it's broken or you have to be a purchaser of the products to use it, because clicking the forum on their web site takes you nowhere.

So be careful looking for support from the developers on this product.

As others have pointed out here it's looking to be an expensive bundle, relative recent updates, but with no apparent or active support. And while the updates are aupposedly free, how does the developer get feedback if their links are broken?

How about a coupon discount program that's actually publicized? The neat app Hi Cap, is available separately but this bundled toolset does have its appeal if they all work!
