I feel honored to nominate Extensis Suitcase for Mac OS X to receive the award for the Buggiest Shoddiest Software Ever On Any Platform. It really stands (or, rather, crashes) in a class by itself. Second only, in a supporting role, is its sister software: FontDoctorKevorkianX. Why, I have seen this rabid pair bring down the entire Panther operating system like it was a mewling baby *censored*cat! Over and over! And because of what? Because of a mere little font that had been run through FontDoctorKevorkianX no fewer than FIVE TIMES (with the good mad Doktor issuing it a completely pristine bill of health, naturally), which same font THEN had been subjected to Suitcase's OWN up-against-the-wall font scanning regimen. (Passed with flying colors, dontchaknow.) Now, I said "a mere little font," but I don't mean to limit it to one. No, that would be taking away glory that is fully due and owning to this pair of gibbering butchers. No, I have seen this happen over, and over, and over, and over--staggering, blinding, blood-curdling system crashes requiring hard restart. I have seen this pair suck endless hours out of lives and businesses like they were twin black holes spinning in a perfectly balanced ballet of utter destruction. Let no man naysay the honor of this nomination. Let all, in unison, say "Aye," and may they be granted this unprecedented award.
