Tomato Torrent 1.0.1 (Mac OS X)
Great little app, easy to use. Free, and mostly stable, I get the occasional crash, but big deal I just restart. [alert admin]

FontBook 4.2 (Mac OS X)
Works well, but requires some patience.
Basically the main use for Font books is printing out a master font list of all the fonts you own, so you can have a nice thick binder to flip through for creative purposes. FontBook works better than any other app for this, but you do have to jump through some hoops to get there. This is the workflow I use when doing this for clients with lots of disorganized fonts. A. Run Font Doctor on a duplicate of their master fonts folder. It'll crash, repeat until it does clen them up. B. Let Font Doctor Organize the fonts into A, B, C, etc... folders. C. Run FontBook against individual folders, not the whole library at once. D. Check the use bitmap check box this will make sure the system doesn't get overloaded. E. Send them to a PDF first, then print the PDF. It still does some wacky things (like put Zapfino at the end of every list, but it's better than the other apps out there and if you do font management with Suitcase you already have a free copy, use it.

Finder Refresher 1.0 (Mac OS X)
Works well, filling a needed void. Been an annoyance, especially when creating a PDF from Quark to the Desktop, sometimes take a minute to show up. Now takes 15 seconds. [alert admin]

Griffin iTrip 2.0 (Mac OS X)
Hands down worst iPod product ever. 
I just can't get the thing to work. The software pretends it's a playlist and then you scroll down and pick the station you want in the playlist, hit selct + play/pause. It has all the worst features of old universal remote controls. Even if I could get it to work the playlist thing is stupid beyond words. Imagine you are on a long trip and need to keep changing frequencys. I listen to long audio books, I need to exit the audio book and lose my place to change the frequency. I wish someone else made a similar product. The cheap transmitters only hit freqencies which are already used in my area. [alert admin]

I've been a Mac Tech for years. I support probably close to 2 dozen Retrospect installs in the field. I used to be proud (4.3 days) to tout it as a superior backup solution than what the Windows crowd used (Backup Exec), no I'm just searching for an alternative. It's unstable and very very hardware sensative, has a heck of a time with changers and frankly I won't run it on my own machine at all anymore. Problem is it's the only easy to use Mac Tape backup solution. This is talking about an enterprise environment where tape is the only choice anyone will listen to. I've found 100 alternatives on the desktop, but charging my customers for bug fixes (5.1, 6.0) is a joke. I've gone from fan to foe because of this. [alert admin]

Leaves a really annoying watermark across the image unless you register. I'd be more excited if I got to try the full thing for a few days before throwing $20 away. [alert admin]
