Conversation 2.14 (Mac OS X)

By principal design/logic, the best Freeware Mac IRC Client

REVIEW: Contrary to the other user comments, I have to say that Conversation, by its principal design/logic, is the best (Freeware) IRC client, which I ever used on the Mac! Conversation works quite simple for new users, but at the same time also allows pro users to issue their text based IRC commands, as they are used to. CONCERNING THE STALLED DEVELOPMENT: - In 10.4 on my Intel MacBookPro it still "sort of worked". It was already slow due to the Rosetta (Intel -> PPC) Code translation, and sometimes crashed. - Meanwhile, 2009-09 with OS 10.5 it practically does not work anymore! - In 2006-03 the author replied to an inquiry email, stating, that he is working on a version 3. - I have sent him another email now in 2009-09, and hope for a reply!

Sad thing! Don't get me wrong, this software is for sure pretty good for solving an issue. The sad thing about this is that it treats something, which must not even be there. Again so much effort, which could be prevented. How much coil and oil is wasted just for circumventing this stupid DRM? I guess rotating the disc in the writer and running the laser is much more consumptive, than converting a file within the memory and harddisk realm... [alert admin]

LCD remains lit after upgrading to Leopard - workaround!

I also used Insomnia very satisfied under Tiger, and I am happy that there is now a (at least somehow) working Leopard version. When I enable Insomnia (via menu or hotkey) and then close the lid, my Mac Book Pro's monitor also remains on. Simple workaround: 1) First put your portable Mac's monitor to sleep. a) Either use Insomnia's built-in feature, which can be triggered via the menu item "Sleep Display", sadly no hotkey assignable currently ( my enhancement…
