    Linkinus ReviewTerrible - Version: 1.2.1, 4/29/2008 10:11AM PST

    Linkinus looks ace and probably should be your choice if all you want to do with your computer is IRC: it takes up more than 50% of CPU time in my system.

    If, like most people, you cant to do other things at the same time with your computer, get something with a smaller footprint.

    Linkinus ReviewUnusable - Version: 1.2.1, 12/8/2007 01:09PM PST

    Looks great in screenshots, but try actually running it, and oh boy. Aside from the terrible networking code, they can't even get their views to draw themselves without constant white-outs and flickering. Smells like somebody's first Cocoa project.
