*BEWARE if you have MacAlly iShockX driver installed*

Feedback Type:  Review

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

REMOVE the iShock X driver from Start-Up Items or all together. It'll use 99% CPU resources while flooding the system log with errors until your startup drive is full. The affected log file is: "./private/var/log/system.log

MacAlly blowz and will NOT fix this, so it's up to Apple to care about some crappy game-pad driver that's a hack to begin with... URGH!

(my rating is for both MacAlly & Apple)

Deleting the MacAlly driver also fixed my drive space problem. 10.3.8 now is up to par. Thanks for the info.
