The best ..I am surprised by the difference in 9.1

Feedback Type:  Commentary

Contributed by: john2847 Sunday, February 10 2008 @ 12:00 AM PST

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

First off I was never a big fan of Spring Cleaning since I tried it on OS 9 back when around version 7 or so was out and then tried version 8 with no big differences. Then version 9 which was ok but lacked in performance and still wasn't as good as some free software like Onyz and others. I did not expect much with the 9.1 but I was greatly surprised. It has been optimized for OS 10.5 Leopard and the performance has been greatly increased. All housekeeping scripts run in around a minute, rebuilding prebindings, system caches and uninstaller are now better than any other software. Including Onyx. MacPilot, *censored*tail and others.

I must say I was shocked and will not recommend this software to anyone.

The last line of the 1st paragraph of your reply seems to show you're impressed with the product. Then, in the 2nd paragraph you say you wont recommend the product to anyone. Perhaps I'm the only one who is confused?

So if you love the new "Spring Cleaning" in paragraph 1, why won't you recommend it to anyone in paragraph 2? I don't get it either. You can't have it both ways, so could you possibly make a choice and post it? That would help those of us who have had a bad "Spring Cleaning" experience in the past. Thanks!

First you tell us how surprised you are at how good it is and then turn around and say that you would not recommend this software. Which is it?

Confused now ? - Born Yesterday

If you guys are confused now, wait til you move out from under your parent's wing.

It's quite obvious he wouldn't recommend the early stages of version 9 and was quite pleased with the recent updates.

Pretty sad that you couldn't comprehend such a simple thing

Sorry everyone the last paragraph was a typo. What I meant was that I would recommend the newer versions, (v9.1) but not the older versions.

I have not been on here in a long time and did not notice all the comments and confusion I caused with the last comment.

I haven't version 10 so I cannot comment on it but there are a lot of free utilities that do the same job as Spring Cleaning so it is just your preference on what you like.
