I have to agree with AppleGeek. My question, gudrick, is why would you take the time to make such a comment?
People on this site are more apt to warn their Mac-using friends of bad applications than they are to come back and state an application works as described. I rarely comment on something unless it surpasses my expectations, especially if the developer is giving it away.
But if I try out something that crashes, I will usually test it on another Mac first, especially if there were no comments about crashing. If I get consistant crashes, I'll contact the developer before coming here to report it. There are too many pure Mac amateurs who will blast an app knowing almost nothing about permissions, UNIX housekeeping, etc.
I consulted with Fortune 500 companies for too many years to feel like I could judge something in a five-minute test. To me, "no reviews" most likely means no one has found anything terribly wrong with it.
But in any event, all software I try gets tested on a sandbox. Even if it takes everything down, I only lost a little time.
I have a licensed copy of CandyBar, so I'll be able to give this a good review. CandyBar isn't perfect, just like every other piece of software available. But generally, it works fine. The developer of CandyBar will be the one to hate this app the most.

No reviews? Well, why didn't you write the first? - bratdaddy
I agree with your comment. I very rarely post anything negative unless I feel it presents unusual risk. I kind of went over the top bashing NAV. But anything that enhances my user experience will be publicly affirmed. This is something that speaks volumes about the differences between our Mac community and Windows users. You rarely see comments about any applications in the Windows section of VT. I wish we had such a forum to rate our politicians daily.Reply to This
