BSNES 0.2.9 (Mac OS X)

*thumbs up for cycle exact*  

Considering games that I played properly on SNES9X, like Stunt Race FX, run just fine on BSNES... well I guess cycle exact helps me a bit there, hmm? You use SNES9X until you have a reason to want cycle-exact emulation, and an ability to run it. I had the former for a long time. Now I have the later too, and suddenly I don't even keep SNES9X on my hard drive. It's not that it's a bad emulator, it's that it cannot run every game flawlessly. Your more efficient emulator may run 98% of games fine, but I have all of them, and I want them all to run perfectly. I just don't understand the hostility. It's a free emulator that works perfectly, sacrificing efficiency. There's another free emulator that sacrifices flawless playability for efficiency. Do I rage against SNES9X because it can't play a handful of games, and I have the computer power to handle emulation that can play them all? No. So why do you rage against BSNES over the fact that you lack the computer power to run it? You have your free alternative, and this isn't even a competition. Let it go! [alert admin]

Sync Entourage-iCal 2 (Tiger) 2.0.8 (Mac OS X)

Will not be needed in a few months  

Microsoft will add sync services to Entourage in an update coming out early this year (I think at MacWorld they said by April). After that this overpriced tool that I never got to work right when I tried it will no longer be needed. [alert admin]

Goldfish Aquarium 0.9.6 (Mac OS X)

The price...  

Is just too high. I would never pay $15 for a screen saver, let alone $20. $5 strikes me as a better screen saver price point. [alert admin]

TechTool Pro 4.0.3 (Mac OS X)

Long ago....  

There was a time when nearly every download you would find came from the MIT HyperArchive. *shrugs* [alert admin]

OmniWeb 5.0rc1 (Mac OS X)

Why pay? It's amazing.  

Why pay? The thumbnail tabs alone are worth $30 to me. The work spaces are AMAZING for projects and whatnot. In fact, there are so many features of this browser that you can't find or you can't find as well done anywhere else that I can't list all of them. Type "google cats" in the search bar to google search without using the muse to click to the search tab. Try to add VersionTracker or Google Images to any other browser's search field. Find another browser that lists all links on a page (only iCab and OW do this). Oh, and it's $20 for students. [alert admin]

Your missing the point  

Wow, a little high and mighty there. I found his comment VERY helpful. I was not planning to go to your webpage to look this up. I was rather irritated that you did not include this information in the description here on VT. He rectified that omission, you should be thanking him. Also, that attitude? Not exactly engendering my sympathies toward your charity leanings.

Wayyyyy too expensive, considering its limited function  

It became free today. Prior to that, it was free to use to look at your drive (and helped me find major space wastes several times). However once you found something to delete, you had to use the Finder to delete it manually. The "trash" button did not work unless you paid them. This is no longer the case.

Upgrade Policy (reaction to reaction)  

Honestly, it sounds like those who bought 4 in December are getting a good deal. A great price if you're happy with what you have, and still a great price (substantially less than full price) if you want 5. There's always a cutoff day, and anyone on the wrong side of it will always feel slighted.

Disappointed w/iTunes lack of full sync/backup!  

iPhoto is what you use to pull photos off your iPhone (backing them up in the process). iTunes WILL sync your mail accounts, IF you turn it on AND select which accounts you want to sync. Look in the Info tab.

Caution  

I can legally call my new book store McDonalds, as they are not the same industry. You can call your software the same name as them, as long as it is completely dissimilar in function and no reasonable person would confuse the two.

?  

I mean, serious... you want Universal Binary AND Visual Basic support in one release? You're a selfish jerk! Why if they give you both of those now, there's no reason to give up that visual basic support in the next version! What kind of business model is that??? What do you think this is, NeoOffice?

Inclusive of Intel chipsets only?  

Based on what I've read, you are incorrect. All of the add-on Airport Extreme cards are a standard Airport Extreme card, the same as in the Core Duo Macs. The Core 2 Duo macs use a different airport extreme card. The wireless sniffer KisMAC notes this hardware difference, when they discuss why the level of support currently in KisMAC is different for the new Core 2 Duo Macs then core the Core Duos. Now the backwards…
