Product Description:

Every file on your computer has name, location, date and contact information, but it's not up to you to remember all this, that's what computers are for! With hard drives getting bigger every year, more and more files are saved every day.

But where did you save them? Can you get to them easily? If you're not careful in saving your files where you know you'll find them, you could have a hard time re- trieving them. You may know part or all of a file's name, information that a file contains, or other related information about a file. But how do you use this information to your advantage?

The in-built search functions of Mac OS X (Spotlight) give you the capability to find files, but without the flexibility and ease you may want. That's where Spotlaser comes in. Spotlaser builds upon Spotlightsʼ features to enable you to get results that are more focused and relevant to your requirements.

I've been using Spotlaser for a few weeks, and I like it -- but I recently heard about MoRU, and it looks like MoRU's gonna win this round. (I'm not affiliated with either product.)
