Cha-Ching 2.0b89 (Mac OS X)

Pretty but shallow...  

I really wanted to like this, especially since it now has an iPhone companion to sync with. Unfortunately, while it looks quite pretty and polished, it is also pretty much lacking in some very basic areas. For example, Cha-Ching doesn't allow you to set up your accounts with any overdraft limits, so the "Available Balance" is always wrong. Maybe the developers are so rich that they have no experience of overdrafts, I don't know, but this alone kills it for me. [alert admin]

Earth Addresser 2.2 (Mac OS X)

Wow! Thanks!  

One of those ingenious, nifty, little utilities that save a lot of work. I wanted to add my contacts to Google Earth manually some time ago, but gave up because it took too much time. Thanks to Earth Addresser I've added over 1200 contacts in less than 5 minutes! And the options are great (photo, link to address book, etc.) Thanks to the Dev for making it free, too! [alert admin]

FontExplorer X Pro 2.0 (Mac OS X)

Happy Customer  

After various disasters with other font management software, Linotype's free FontExplorer has served me well over the past years, so I didn't really think twice about buying the new commercial version. Some nice additions (and CS4 compatibility for the auto-activation plugins!) and the warm happy feeling of having a reliable font database built on solid ground... [alert admin]

Sweet...  

Again, one of those things that Apple should have built in. Make sure to check the Preferences (at the bottom of Address Book Dates' menu) for configuration options! Nice touch! [alert admin]

FontExplorer X 1.2.3 (Mac OS X)

AMAZING!  

I still can't believe that the best professional font management software for the Mac is Freeware... I'm even more impressed to see that Linotype managed to update it in less than 24 hours after the MacOS 10.5.2 update broke it. Thank you guys & girls...! [alert admin]

CoverSutra 2.0 (Mac OS X)

Neat!  

As pretty as it is, I don't care that much about the CD cover display on the desktop (which is usually cluttered with icons and windows) and there are plenty of other (free) iTunes remote control apps --- but the quicksearch function is simply brilliant! All in all a very neat application.

(PS: you can get it until 23 January 2008 as part of the MacHeist.com bundle) [alert admin]

Bookpedia 4.1.1 (Mac OS X)

Excellent  

I waited forever for "Delicious Library" to be updated and finally bought this instead. Shouldn't have waited for so long: This is a brilliant application, with lots of different options/sources for information import and huge variety of export templates. Neat! [alert admin]

BugMirror 1.1 (Mac OS X)

Hot but hot!  

Visually and conceptually this is absolutely amazing, but unfortunately gets my Macbook Pro close to boiling point. Do try this out though, it looks fantastic! [alert admin]

RECOMMENDED UPGRADE PROCEDURE  

Installation only commences once the update has been fully downloaded & extracted anyway. But "Download Only" gives you more control as to when to apply the update, e.g. AFTER the one last backup you forgot to do earlier... ;-)

SPAM Brain  

What an infantile comment. How do you propose companies or charities send out newsletters to their subscribers then?

One of the weirdest comments ever  

Speak for yourself, mate. If you're happy with just a Gmail account, good for you! You're question alone suggests it really is going to be all you need.

Why is this here?  

Although I'm a hardcore RW user, I have to agree. If people are interested in staying up-to-date in regards to Theme development, they can subscribe to the RSS feeds at www.realmacsoftware.com.

I've been angered, annoyed and irritated by "reviews" before, but this one just leaves me scratching my head... - Who ARE these people?

No worse  

>> Who are these people leaving glowing reviews People who don't have a problem obviously. I don't know what might be wrong with your system. You can pretty much rule out handling errors, since there is nothing to do for the user but run Album Art Thingy once and it reliably does its job. At least on my machines.

Stealing Name  

I wonder what notebooks and circus ponies think of Circus Ponies attempt to steal their names...

does not work on YOUR quad intel  

One star because you can't run it (for whatever reason) on your computer? That's like trashing a book because you're blind.
