Pixelmator 1.1.2 (Mac OS X)

Excellent!  

Pixelmator is a great light-weight alternative to Photoshop for hobbyists. It's fast and elegant and offers most features you'll need. A few things (like more supported formats) would be great for upcoming versions, but apart from that I have only a few complaints: the German localisation is not always consistent and sometimes wrong, and the developers should seriously re-think the idea of black or dark-grey symbols on a black background.

Sandvox 1.2.2 (Mac OS X)

Degrading and degrading...  

I'm extremely disappointed with the developement that Sandvox went through. I'm using it since version 1.0 and it has become ever slower and buggier. Sandvox could be such a great program - the features are great and it's really easy to get great results. Unfortunately, the program is sickeningly slow most of the time and riddled with - usually small but annoying - bugs. Additionally, it crashes on a fairly regular basis, which takes the last fun out of using Sandvox. A real pity. [alert admin]

Path Finder 4.7 (Mac OS X)

Pretty slick, but...  

Pathfinder is a rather good alternative to MacOS X's Finder (as long as you like the Explorer style - which I do not, but that's beside the point), and still faster than it. Unfortunately, PF suffers from being overburdened with far too much features and options that make it appear cluttered and complicated. Less would have been far more. Additionally, there are a couple of (usually minor) bugs that haven't been fixed for a while and the German localisation is riddled with typos, misspellings and errors. This lessens the overall appearance of quality quite a bit. [alert admin]

EyeTV 2.4 (Mac OS X)

Version 2.4 not localised?  

Strange. For some reason, the available version seems not to be localised. On my german system, all texts within EyeTV remain english. This wasn't the case with previous versions... [alert admin]

Sandvox 1.0.4 (Mac OS X)

Buggier than before...  

I'm using Sandvox since it's final release and love it. It could be a little more flexible from time to time, though. Unluckily, Sandvox is plagued but some very annoying bugs, like inserted pictures not showing up, problems with copied & pasted content and especially deselecting the active textbox and jumping back to the top of the page after some actions (like inserting pictures or pressing "cursor down" at the bottom of the page). Sandvox 1.0.4 is even worse: it shows this behaviour with no apparent cause in irregular but short intervals. This makes editing pages *extremly* tedious. If you are interested in Sandvox (and you should be), wait for a fixed version. [alert admin]

iBabel 2.0 (Mac OS X)

Nice, but...  

iBabel is a nice GUI for OpenBabel with nice features. Having the user to compile OpenBabel himself makes installation more complicated than it needs to be, but okay - it's not really a problem.
But please, guys, do not mess around with MacOS X's folder structure!!! It is unnecessary, annoying and extremely bad style that iBabel needs to create it's own little "Public" folder on the hard disk's root level.
Every installation of MacOS X has enough folders that would do the job. So, unless iBabel learns to use the appropiate folders like "Application support" or "/var/tmp" for temporary files and learns to clean up after itself, I'm refraining of giving iBabel any review.

Armagetron 0.2.7.1 (Mac OS X)

Simple bute effective...  

Probably the best Lightcycle games ever. True in style and gameplay to the original "Tron" movie and fun to play - not only versus human players but also versus the quite good AI. [alert admin]

BibDesk 1.1.4 (Mac OS X)

No good...  

From the release notes: "TeX previewing no longer causes BibDesk to crash frequently" Sure. Now it crashes *always* - and freezes when I try to quit the program, when I change the preferences, when I try to open the cite drawer... With all due respect: this update is utter *crap*. [alert admin]

Opera 8.0.1 (Mac OS X)

Bloody Hell!!  

This is *fast*!! It definetly beats Safari, Firefox or any other browser I know. There's a minor flaw, though: Opera seems to lock up for half a minute or so from time to time. But apart from that, it's a fast, stable and small (yes, small! It's smaller than Firefox!) browser. [alert admin]

If you use Front Row <b>legally</b>, then you <b>have</b> a Apple Remote. Front Row is only bundled with Macs that come with an Apple Remote (though this might change with Leopard - in 2007).

How about "File>Catalog>Print..."? Couldn't be much easier...

Is there a point to this?  

Yes - there is a point. In case you didn't notice: iTunes can also play - and create! - MP3 files. Which can be played on the Zen player.
