Great, now people who don't even know why they think they need kernel-level 64-bit enabled will be able to peer intently at their system and tut-tut about things they don't understand, then tinker with things they shouldn't be touching, for reasons that exist only in their imagination.

There should be a test you have to take before you download. If you don't understand 64-bit, you should not be touching an app like this. If you do, then go ahead.

Oh great. - adam carter

How long did it take you to write that comment. Did you craft that sentence years ago while on college ruled paper and finally decided it was ready to unleash it to the world. I would say worry about your own shhhhtuff, but you need to have a life to worry about.
loser...

Oh great. - xjja

And thank you for exactly making my point. Right there. If ever you doubted I was right, it must be completely gone now after reading these comments.

Exactly what I was talking about.

*Exactly*

These nobs would have failed the test, too.

Oh great. - Z4N3VT

Why not give thanks to the DEV of the program that it is FREE and also giving money to charity!!!! and whos timing was PERFECT to bring out a APP like this!!! there is always someone who thinks of the negative and not! i.e. USER UNDERSTANDS!! USER DOWNLOADS!!! USER VERY HAPPY!!!! USER DONATES TO DEV!! DEV GIVES 50% to needy children!!! WIN WIN SITUATION!!!!

I have personally posted a link on varios websites because I think THIS IS A GREAT program and helps MANY people who have macs almost 1 year o older! and need to know if there Macs are capable of 64Bit. so before you knock the program give a real review and atleast give the DEV credit for his HARD!! work and charity!!! and not give a negative on your personal views!!!! on a situation YOU DO NOT KNOW to be true!!! this is not a NANNY state!!! and users are FREE to do what they want on THERE MACHINES!!! and the DEV does not need to give any more advice than he has already done!!!

Oh great. - xjja

Then, quite frankly, you're retarded, and you have no business touching an app like this, because you have no idea whatsoever.

Not so great. - SpafTh

The meaning of your comment is not without merit. But the way you present it makes me think you are more concerned with demonstrating your superiority than with conveying any information.

How old are you, twelve?
