Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Have Not Tried

It doesn't surprise me that the developer didn't submit screen shots to VT or even have much more than a corner of this so-called task bar showing on his web site. No real screen shots.

The little I saw on his site convinced me that if I ever do cuss at my Dock, I'll remember this little thing and declare everlasting love for the Dock.

Plus, the developer's web site proudly states that the Windoze Task Bar is the one thing M$ got right. Yeah, well, that's certainly a matter of opinion and he's welcome to his.

LOL!

I foolishly actually installed this thingon my Intel iMac. It sat there on the bottom of my screen doing nothing, its clock stuck at 11:37a.m. I could have lived with that. WTF? But it kept throwing up an inky-black buy-me! every too-damned-often that you couldn't dismiss till ten seconds had passed. If you clicked without waiting or clicked anywhere except on the close box even *after* waiting, you were taken to the developer's site.

So, I tried to delete it, at which point I got an error message stating that I couldn't mess with it because it was meant for PPC Macs only! WTF?!

Anyway, I restarted and ran AppleJack. That got rid of it. (Please, God! Let there be a Snow Leopard version of AppleJack!)

Actually, he says "one thing that <i>you</i> think Windows does right".

What he's saying is that if you think Windows does that right, then this software is for you.

By that logic, there will be about five sales of this app.
