Aqua4iTunes 3.2.0a (Mac OS X)
Since only the people who have a complaint ever post here, I thought I would chime in and say this: This version worked perfectly for me! It does exactly what it says it will, it's exceedingly simple to use, there are plenty of very cool choices, it's free(!), and the results are perfect. Thank you for making such a great little program, and thank you for updating it so fast after new versions of iTunes come out!! Be Well, Peter [alert admin]

CoolBook 1.2 (Mac OS X)
Could this software be used to overclock the CPU? That would be pretty cool (or hot, i guess) Cheers, Peter [alert admin]

ChocoFlop 0.51 (Mac OS X)
This little app is a surprisingly good Photoshop challenger. I gave it a try out of desperation because I use an intel Mac, and I must say that I am very impressed! As soon as it's a little more stable (though it is already very workable, just save often), and the tools refresh a little quicker, I suspect the author will start getting some hate mail from Adobe. Seriously, it's pretty upsetting that, a year after Apple announced the transition to intel chips, Adobe still hasn't released Photoshop for intel Macs!! What's worse, those poor saps who bought Adobe CS 2 for their intel machines will have to pony up another half of the purchase price just to have their overpriced software run as it should!!! (And don't tell me it's hard to port Photoshop to intel Mac: at over $600 a copy, they could afford to hire every programmer on the planet and still keep their stockholders happy!) Cheers, Peter [alert admin]

smcFanControl 1.1 (Mac OS X)
I have been hoping for a program like this to come out for years! Combine this with the soon to be released ATIcceleratorII and the MacBookPro will be the amazing gaming platform it should be out of the box! Thank you so much for this software! Peter [alert admin]

NeoOffice 2.0 Aqua Beta 3 (Mac OS X)
I am completely amazed by the quality of this software, even in its beta form! I can only imagine how nice it will be once it is in its final version! Especially important to me is that the spreadsheet 'portion' of the software has a full complement of formulas, even in statistics (I don't even think Excel can do a T-test)! I am totally impressed (plus, it runs on natively on Intel Macs)! I hope this helps, Peter [alert admin]

BwanaDik 2.5 (Mac OS X)
I've used this app for a long time now, and I think it's flawless! It's simple, clear, not overloaded with useless features, and it works exactly as expected. Last thing: I really like the icons; they're clear and give you the quick info you need... Oh, yeah, the price is just right too! Thank you! [alert admin]

ATIccelerator II 1.0.6b (Mac OS X)
This software works amazingly! 
It added 10fps in X-Plane on a 1.25GHz PowerBook G4! Now let's pray a version for the X1600 can be developed [alert admin]

RealPlayer 10.1.0 (Mac OS X)
There is no Universal version! 
Hello all, this is an email from Real's tech support confirming that there is no Universal version of Real Player: Dear Peter, Thank you for contacting RealNetworks Technical Support. From your mail, we understand that you wish to download the Universal (or even Intel-only) application. You can download the free RealPlayer 10 for OS X software from the following web site: https://order.real.com/pt/order.html?ppath=cpmacpl060204a&country=US&language=EN&src=062904os_mac At this time, some RealNetworks products are incompatible with the recently-introduced Intel-based Apple Macintosh computers that use an Intel Core Duo chip. We are working on updates to our Mac OS X products to ensure they work seamlessly with this new Intel-based Macintosh product family, and hope to have new versions of our products available in the near future. Compatible (on Mac OS 10.4.4 and later): - RealPlayer 10 for Mac OS X - RealPlayer embedded on Web sites within the Safari or Firefox browser - Rhapsody.com on the Safari or Firefox browser Incompatible: - RealNetworks purchased music files (.rax, .rvx, .rms) Please check this page regularly for news on our progress. We value our Mac OS X customers, and remain committed to providing quality products on this platform! Please reply if you need further assistance regarding this issue. Have a nice day. xxxxx RealNetworks Technical Support In Response to: There is an entry in versiontracker.com for RealPlayer10 for MacOSX that claims to be a universal (Intel/PowerPC) application (version 10.1.0), but every single link on your website leads to the PowerPC-only version 10.0.0 Is there a way for me to download the Universal (or even Intel-only) application? Thank you [alert admin]

GeekTool 2.1 (Mac OS X)
I've been using this since before Tiger (and have had no problems with Tiger). I just recently found an easy solution to a small inconvenience: I needed to stop an HD from spinning down, so I set us a UNIX script to say: "touch -c /Volumes/yourvolume/fakefile" That did the trick to prevent spindown! Thank you so much for a great app!! [alert admin]

Same here, but only if downloading multiple torrents... It seems like this version was designed in part to fix a freezing issue. Maybe that is not complete. Anyway, this is a great program, and I'm sure this minor issue will be fixed soon!

Well, I don't know about all that... The original complaint, as i understand it, is that, despite all the bravado this app displays, Drive Genius really just runs fsck to repair disks, and that's pretty lame! (especially if they're charging $299 for IT people!!!) in the original complaint, DW stands for Disk Warrior, the very best directory repair app out there, ever. You couldn't be more wrong when you say that most failures on a HD are hardware…

is versiontracker jumping the gun?
Same here, maybe the final X-Plane is just the same as RC-3 except for that one plane, so they haven't updated the site yet. Or, maybe it's a re-release of RC-3 and versiontracker mis-labled it as 8.50 (implying final). I'm leaning toward the latter because traditionally the beta installer only installs betas, and the 'demo' installer only isntalls final versions. In this case the 'demo' installer is still identifying 8.40 as the last final version. I don't…

Jeez, do we *have* to type everything into Terminal just because we can? I like Terminal as much as the next person, but I also like to be able to just double-click and get on with my day... To the developer: Great job on the apps and the new 'kill Dashboard' Widget! Thank you! Peter

does it give the old version number in the 'splash screen' or the 'about Word' screen, or just in the Finder. The reason I ask is that the Finder sometimes fails to reflect small increment versions (same with Acrobat reader, even if you have Reader 7.0.2, the Finder still says it's 7.0). However, once in the application, in this case Word, you should see the correct version number. This does happen, and is usually not symptomatic of anything…
