Product Description:

Short for RyanAndFriends Network OS. Enjoy fun features from many RAF software programs and more in a systematical GUI enviorment. Note: This is not an actual operating system and does not effect the actual computer system in any way. Opens in a simple Application. Good trick, good fun, or even good learning about operation systems for small children. Kids wont have to remember any login infornmation either, they can use any name they want and not even care about a password. I would love to hear about ways to improve this also. You can interact with things like contests and trivia that are changed weekly or monthly without having to update the program.This is an application. You cannot boot from it! Please Please Please rate this program and let me know what I can add so I can improve this app. Comes with OS9 and Windows versions to share with you less-fortunate friends.

However negative you want your ratings to be, please be fair. You cannot give a price rating of one star if it's freeware, can you? And how can you rate support as one star? Have you had to request help with an issue and find bad support as a result of that? Please! Be fair, at least. I spend time on this. Make your criticism totally honest.

Ryan,

A ton of REALbasic applications you don't need, all bundled together so you never need to download them. A lot of these functions included here are done better, and more professionally, in other applications found here at VersionTracker.

Additionally, the software license appears to have been written by someone in high school, lacking legal experience. For example, the EULA provision of "You Will Not Attempt To Take Legal Action Against RyanAndFriends/RyanAndFriends Software or anyone associated" is utterly unenforceable. You cannot assume away my rights so easily, especially when I am "not required to view this document to abide by these terms." As an example, it wouldn't be enforceable at all to put a clause in the license saying that the user agrees not to post any negative reviews of the software (though, I'd love to see you try).

In short, fire your programming team, and seek a lawyer's assistance in creating a EULA that won't get laughed out or court. While I don't doubt that this piece of software might be useful eventually, it most definitely isn't there now.

Wow! This is possibly the worst piece of software ever written. Download it to put Tiger's "Secure Erase" feature to good use!
