sterMachine ReviewNew interface not quite as described - Version: 2.3.0b, 3/21/2005 01:11PM PST

The main feature that's supposed to be new with the 2.3.0 update, to display all of sterMachine's functions from the main window, appears to be just the opposite, in a way--the previous versions literally did show most options in a single window, but 2.3.0 requires you to access each option from popups in the small main window, each of which brings up its own window. Also, some options are still accessed only from the menu bar. Not an improvement as far as I'm concerned, and it really is the opposite of what the author describes as being the new interface.

Besides that, it's a fine utility.

This app think takes a loooong time to load (on 10.3.8) Crammed packed with lots of features although some do not function. Promising.

This works great!
A very nice all-in-one utility, and you cant beat the price.
I have it and use it on several machines and have never had a problem yet.
