Loved it but a little pricey and my system was too slow

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

Really neat graphics and sounds, can adjust them to your liking, but just a little steep at $50 and it slowed down my system a little bit (1.8GHz iMac G5 with 1.5GB RAM).

If you've got a faster system and dollars to spare I would definitely pay for it.

Loved it but a little pricey and my system was too slow - updater2534

I forget to add--the developers are *very* responsive but the uninstall process is very convoluted--you have to enter a Terminal command (it tells you how, more or less) and even then I found half a dozen affiliated files on my hard drive afterwards.

We fixed the uninstall in the latest release v3.11. It is now a piece of cake to use with a click to uninstall.

Serene Saver Pro actually has some smarts built into it to throttle itself back if it starts to detect your system slowing down. In practice most people don't even feel any slowdown unless perhaps they are running on an older slower Mac. The best thing to do is just to try it out and see if you feel any slowdown.
