Vuze 4.2.0.2 (Mac OS X)
Want a resource hungry beast to eat all your CPU cycles? 
What a morbidly bloated, slow, buggy, memory and cpu hog piece of sh*t this thing is. I'm trying to understand what kind of an idiot would recommend this garbage over light alternatives. [alert admin]

Readiris Pro 11.6.3 (Mac OS X)
I finally decided to use this app after giving up on omnipro (let's face it's obsolete by now). Bad idea. I've spend time an money trying to make this app work. It crashes from time to time (at least it does on 10.4.11 PPC). That wasn't the deal breaker, as you can avoid doing certain things that would make it crash. But my biggest gripe is the useless, inflexible, reminiscent of open source, User Interface. A total atrocity. I don't understand how they even made it to version 11. If anyone has any suggestions for a better OCR app, I'm all ears. [alert admin]

iPartition 3.0.1 (Mac OS X)
Overpriced for what it does.. The author should bundle both iDefrag & iPartition for under $40. I can't justify paying over $50 for this. With that said, it works as advertised. I went from having 4 partitions with various OSes down to a HFS+ & NTFS partition without losing any data. You must absolutely compact files with iDefrag prior to growing or shrinking a partition or you can kiss your partitions good bye. Mac OS X handles fragmentation fine with very little performance hit. That doesn't mean your volumes aren't fragmented. Someone several posts below claimed he was able to change the partition map from Apple to GUID on a drive without losing data. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you will lose all data if you intend to use the drive for booting, as a bootable GUID map needs 200 MB reserved for EFI at the beginning of the disc. It may work for an external non bootable drive. I still wouldn't recommend it. I wouldn't touch diskutil to do this with a ten ft pole. This app on the other hand is easy to use in comparison.

StuffIt Expander 12.0 (Mac OS X)
Hey idiots! Stop sending me stuffit files!
That's what I'd like to say to every client that forwards me these type of compressed files. Nothing sucks more than having a 600mb sit file expand over a period of 3 hrs ! (on a fast mac) What's more insulting is the low ratio compression that the majority of users use when they compress these. Ok. you made me wait 2 hrs to decompress your sh*t. Why is the uncompressed source only %2 bigger than the compressed sit file? Use the built in Mac OS "Create Archive of" instead you morons. Hint: right click on the file/folder to compress them [alert admin]

KeyCastr 0.7.3 (Mac OS X)
Ok I've seen to discovered what the problem was. You need to enable access for assistive devices under Universal Access in the System Preferences panel. I didn't find this under any documentation. Even on the developers site. Hope this helps. As far as the program goes. It's beautiful. It does exactly what I wanted. This app in conjunction with iShowU are the perfect combo. [alert admin]

Bluebeard 1.0b6.2 (Mac OS X)
hasn't been updated for more than a year, doesn't work with 10.3.7 (won't fetch groups or articles etc) I like the no-frills UI. I hope it gets updated [alert admin]

ShapeShifter 1.2 (Mac OS X)
Does not accelerate jack sh*t, LOL!
previous comment says it all when it comes to the types of users this is aimed at. I gave this a try with the hopes I could find a theme with a grey version of aqua, instead I found lots of unusable (ugly & over the top) themes, and lots of crashes. like it has been previously said the crashes always boiled down to APE related libraries. it does NOT accelerate anything, if anything it does the contrary. it majorly slows down applications launch time.

I keep finding new ways to make this app crash, and that isn't good. And I just lost 50 pages (the limit it can recognize) with this last crash. That means all the interactive learning (pattern recognition of a batch of pages) has been lost for that session. There's no recovery mode, and that sucks being the app clearly needs it. If the scan isn't next to perfect this app will simply crash. You have to…
