OCUnit v32 (Mac OS X)

Excellent Stuff.  

An excellent implementation of the junit pattern of unit testing (an industry standard, for all intents and purposes. I would encourage anyone writing reusable APIs either for their own use or for others to build a test suite!! [alert admin]

uControl 1.3.6b (Mac OS X)

It has to be installed system wide.  

It is a kernel extension. It can only be installed system wide. This is not a limitation of the software. [alert admin]

Apple Safari 1.0 (Mac OS X)

Pith is the Problem  

It appears that Pith Helmet causes Safari v1.0 to behave badly. Remove Pith first. (And stop blaming Safari for problems not of its own making!) Once done, it seems to work flawlessly. [alert admin]

Apple iTunes 4.0 (Mac OS X)

Uh... $10 to…  

$12 / album on average, regardless of # of songs. I was able to pick up 3 remixes from a collection for $3 -- I would have had to have spent $20 on the collection otherwise and had not done so because of the price tag. A successful product is one that makes the consume think they saved money ($17) when they really spent money ($3) that they weren't planning on spending because of the original price tage. The Store got me there! [alert admin]

Awesome. AAC! So…  

-- Halmat and Desperado are upset because Apple didn't release all the features for their *old* iPods.... you guys are probably also upset that Apple doesn't support Quartz Extreme on Beige G3s? Get over-- the world marches on and obsolescence, planned or otherwise, is a reality. [alert admin]

Apple iTunes 4.0 (Mac OS X)

Saxotech: Do you…  

have any clue what legal hoops Apple had to jump through to bring what they have to market *at all*???? Any clue what would be required to bring this to an international market? Every country and every region will require a whole slew o' new contracts with different distribution rules. (Giving iTunes 4 a 5/5 for other reasons than the store) [alert admin]

AppleWorks X 6.2.7 (Mac OS X)

(1) updated flawlessly…  

and works as well as it always did. (2) review what has been released, not what hasn't. (3) this is not a Cocoa rewrite, not even remotely-- still a Carbon app and a much better engineered set of Carbon apps that Microsoft Office. [alert admin]

Snood 3.0b3 (Mac OS 9, Mac OS X)

After, what, 18…  

months of OS X betas of Snood, you'd think it would have some basic bugs eliminated. Yet, it does not. Mouse/trackpad interaction is still buggy as hell, the app still consumes massive amounts of system resources, and it still looks like crap. If GameHouse can get this right [Nisqually, Collapse, etc...]..... [alert admin]

Actually....  

(just to rehash ancient history) Actually, I found the whole thing amusing. No problem with the existance of Moo, as far as I am concerned. The source was specifically released for others to use any way they saw fit and I was very happy to see any use of it.

It's disappeared  

Xoptimize disappeared because the app is-- and always has been-- useless for anyone but developers that wanted to learn how to run an external command and parse the output. Prebinding never needed to be updated, even in Jaguar. That people did so on a regular basis and claimed miraculous improvements in their lives was purely psychological. (b.bum)
