ExportToQT 2.2 (Mac OS X)
Serbian's support (and web forums) gets the highest recommendation I can imagine. He will make anything right, and very quickly. His apps are top-notch and among the best of video conversion tools. [alert admin]

Photomatix Pro 2.0b7 (Mac OS X)
This is very well designed software to combine bracketed exposures for very natural looking, wide dynamic range images. Unlimited stacking and multiple blending controls make for fast and easy results, saving hours of masking and layers work in PS. [alert admin]

Nikon View 6.2.2 (Mac OS X)
NikonView has been basically useless since its OSX introduction back with version 5, being incredibly slow and clunky. I had given up with it at Version 6.1 while faster, still barely functional. Downloaded 6.2.1 and applied 6.2.2 update and am happy to report its speed has greatly improved and no longer chokes on large thumbnail folders and displays and zooms with reasonable speed now, even on a 900mz G3.

CodeTek VirtualDesktop Pro 3.0B3 (Mac OS X)
Have to give CodeTek credit for responding to the negative comments, including mine. I really like VD and will consider upgrading for the new price (now more appropriate) when features I would want are added. I do use it on a daily basis, yet interesting how a $10 difference feels so much more unreasonable. Is there an upgrade path for 2.0 owners to the 3.0 Lite version? [alert admin]

CodeTek VirtualDesktop Pro 3.0B3 (Mac OS X)
Count me out as a six-month owner who feels ripped off after paying a too-stiff fee already to now see it sold to me again. I'll never buy another CodeTek product again. I will make an extra effort to spread the word to anyone who will listen. Change the upgrade to $10.00 or go out of business. [alert admin]

DeFish 2.1 (Mac OS 9, Mac OS X)
to see DeFish ported to OSX. It works fantastically with the Nikon CoolPix 180 fisheye lens. IPIX should go bankrupt for patenting general public domain research. [alert admin]

Connectix Virtual PC 6.0 (Mac OS 9, Mac OS X)
post. It details a suggestion to pro-actively increase VPC speed by having multiple drive images for apps that need speed by keeping drive image size as small as possible. I found it by trial and error (resources demanded it) but it has been also suggested by one of the gurus at MacWindows also. My G3 400 shouldn't even open XP according to the complainers with dual G4's that wait 5 minutes for IE to launch. Sounds like a re-install to me. Sorry, but I use VPC very nicely and trouble-free for my needs. If I needed heavy lifting I'd be foolish to expect emulation to do it. [alert admin]

Connectix Virtual PC 6.0 (Mac OS 9, Mac OS X)
XP on a lowly G3 400 PowerBook with 10.2.2 and 5.0.4 with ZERO problems also. Surf IE (at 56k dail-up speed from DSL), ActiveSync a PPC daily in 98SE, never a single crash or slowdown. My XP displays full size 2MB jpegs full screen from a CD as fast as my client's 1GB NT Dell notebook did with the same CD. I've never seen software with such an incredible disparity of user satisfaction and results. All I know is there was an enormous performance hit when a lean, stripped 98SE drive(<400MB) got bloated with apps that grew to a 1.5GB drive image. There is an almost numerical relationship between speed and drive image size, as size increases, speed drops equivilantly. This has been repeatedly tested with the same results for me. The idea isn't so wack, the virtual drive is just a large file folder, making changes to a large file increases execution upwards the larger the file. Maybe with such a marginal system as I have, the effect is more pronounced, but the results could be charted. The same with XP, run the bare original drive image and get useable speed. Add a few apps (especially Windows Acrobat Reader or another browser besides IE) and watch speed tank. Maybe Acrobat Reader has a running backround resource hog. With VPC every single element sucks away resouces, until there is nothing left but an OS spinning just to run at all. Use a processor monitor like PTHCPU and watch VPC churn away. MyÐ [alert admin]
