I think this is a useful professional tool if you are doing PDF rendering for publication and need to dig into PS, but for ordinary mortals it is not something they need. Free Open Source GhostScript plugins are all that is necessary for most purposes, and these come standard with OSX.

If you're just a casual user, save your money.

MacGhostView Reviewmacps2pdf is also extremely useful - Version: 4.4, 5/17/2007 10:59AM PST

Converts ps->eps, fixes eps, does all kinds of other conversions. Very useful for TeX, etc. The author gave me an unlock code, after I paid my shareware fee, in 2003 and it still works, two full versions later. PS Viewing is much faster than with Preview and Xwin and allows to zoom in on parts of the figure with a click of the mouse. To me, the package has been indispensable.
