VersionTracker Pro 4.5 (Mac OS X)
I actually tried to use the newer beta version of 1/22/08 and it crashes too. I guess I won't be renewing my membership in 6 days time. [alert admin]

Leap 1.0 (Mac OS X)
Is it me or is this utility a tad on the pricy side. I would gladly pay half this amount but given the cost compared to other programs and to Leopard itself this seems a bit over priced. Just my 2 cents. [alert admin]

Talk about sleazy upgrade policies for people who bought the MacHeist bundle. I have joined the boycott of Yazsoft and I invite others to join me. [alert admin]

Cover Stream 1.2 (Mac OS X)
Another one of those “why didn’t Apple do this?” apps. Gotta love it! It just keeps getting better and better. [alert admin]

Parallels Desktop 3.0 Build 4124.0 (Mac OS X)
When I bought v2 in December of '07 I received an email from Parallels which stated, "This copy includes free Upgrade Protection for one year following the date of purchase, which entitles you to receive all major upgrades released during that timeframe at no additional cost. When a new major version is released, you will receive an email to the address you used to register the product that includes instructions on how to download and install the new version, and a permanent activation key that is compatible with the new version." Parallels has not sent me a free upgrade to v3 even though it has been released. Other customers are getting upset at their lack of a free upgrade. Please see An Open Letter to SWsoft Regarding Parallels at http://www.postal-code.com/binarycode/2007/06/08/an-open-letter-to-swsoft-regarding-parallels/ Caveat emptor indeed. [alert admin]

1Passwd 1.5.3280 (Mac OS X)
This is truly one of the greatest utilities of all time. It works so seamlessly with Apple's Keychain making it a really useful tool. The AutoFill ability is awesome in the scope of fields that you can configure. The phishing protection is one of those things I didn't appreciate until I started using !Passwrd. I recommend anyone watch the movie on the phishing protection that is on the developer's home page. Many utilities are nifty but can be difficult to learn so the value is rarely what you thought it would be when you bought it. 1Passwd's developers have created a terrific movie, again on their home page, that clearly explains the way the program works. I wish more developers took this approach as I found it much faster than using a manual. It further reinforces the concept that 1Passwrd will save you time from the get go. I can't praise the developers enough. 1Passwd is a 5 Star winner! [alert admin]

MailSteward 7.0 (Mac OS X)
I have been interested in this software but have wanted the ability to archive individual mailboxes. Finally that feature arrives but the cost is increased by 66%. Too rich for my blood. [alert admin]

MySync 0.74b (Mac OS X)
This software works great. Now my wife, son and myself all have synced Address Book contacts and iCal calendars. A thousand "thank you"s. I wish that there was a manual and not simply Help screens but it is easy to figure out the installation and configure properly. [alert admin]

I did get an email with a free s/n for v3 on Wednesday 13 June so perhaps one simply needs to be very patient when dealing with these folks.
