USB Overdrive 10.4.8 (Mac OS X)
Friday, April 18, 2008: I've been a fan of USB Overdrive for years (I posted a glowing report a few months ago), but as of 10.5.2, this utility no longer works, and the developer is not responding. It simply doesn't recognize any mouse that we've tried with it. Normally, once you install USB Overdrive and restart your Mac, you can go into its System Pref, and click on any of your mouse's buttons, and the utility will tell you which button that is corresponding to. You can then set up any actions you'd like to that button. However, it's no longer doing this, rendering the program utterly useless. I'm posting this to make sure others are purchasing this program, at least until they start responding to problems, and come out with an update beyond 10.4.8. [alert admin]

USB Overdrive 10.4.8 (Mac OS X)
Upgraded to Leopard yesterday (Saturday, October 26, 2007) on my Mac Pro 2.66. Granted, I did it this way: 1. Cloned the drive to a second drive 2. Wiped the first drive. 3. Installed Leopard on that first drive 4. Used Apple's Migration tool (which pops up the first time you start up with Leopard), pointing to the clone, and it grabbed everything from my User folder, to all the installed Applications. The install process showed that USB Overdrive hadn't loaded. So I came to vt, saw the new version, and loaded it. Runs perfect. Remembered my very convoluted settings on my many-buttoned Logitech MX510, and it all works flawlessly. Congrats to the developer. Well done. One of the best utitilies I use. [alert admin]

PithHelmet 2.6.7 (Mac OS X)
Will pay again to have an update for Safari 3.0
Ditto what others are saying below: I'll gladly pay the developer again in order to get a PithHelmet update that will work for the latest Safari 3.x version. PithHelmet it that critical to great web browsing. Once you surf without ads and popups, it's like watching TV without Tivo: the ads drive you crazy. One suggestion for the next version of PithHelmet: add "Auto save and restore opened browser windows and tabs at quitting and start." It's the only reason I use Saft right now, and I'd prefer to have to only install PithHelmet to do this. [alert admin]

Minuteur 4.7.2 (Mac OS X)
Still the best time of all of them 
I've been a user of Minuteur for over a year. I tried over 9 others before finding this, and it's just perfect. Small footprint. I use it daily to remind myself to call someone back, or check the dryer, or go to an appointment, or go exercise. All sorts of things that I might otherwise forget to do. [alert admin]

Mac Pilot 2.2.8 (Mac OS X)
A comparison chart between Onyx and Pilot would help sales
I hope someone creates a table that shows side-by-side comparisons of what each of these top, best maintenance programs do and don't do. If I was Mac Pilot's developer, I'd do exactly that. I'll bet it would drastically help sales, especially from all of us who've relied on Onyx for years. I'd gladly hand over $20, if I only knew what else I'd be getting. [alert admin]

OnyX 1.7.7 (Mac OS X)
I was going to ignore the poster below, since I've used Onyx for years and find it the best maintenance utility out there. But then saw the final word in his post:
BEWARE!
Had it just been a normal "Beware" I wouldn't have given this post much credence. But any time I see an all-caps Beware, I don't know, I think it means we need to proceed with extreme caution. The exclamation point that follows it is the final straw for me. I mean, how much more Beware can you get. [alert admin]

Scrabble 1.0 (Mac OS X)
How do you play without networking?
As others have noted, I don't see how you can play this without the ability to have the second player, on their computer, be able to play as well. Do you have them come over to your computer, do their move, and then you do yours? Each time? The minute this game comes out with networking, I'm buying 4 copies for each of my Scrabble-loving family, scattered all across the globe. But not until then. [alert admin]

Spotless 1.1 (Mac OS X)
I'm trying this out on my MacBook. How do you get a volume to show up in the list? I've tried restarting. No fancy formatting, just the way the drive came from Apple. About half the drive is empty. I'd so love to dump Spotlight. [alert admin]

Symantec Norton AntiVirus 10.1.1 (Mac OS X)
Please read this article: http://arstechnica.com/journals/apple.ars/2006/11/4/5858 It's kind of a long article, so a quick 3-point summary: 1. There are no Mac viruses. 2. To date, there aren't any Mac viruses. 3. If you live in the Rocky Mountain area of the US, and own hurricane insurance, Norton's AntiVirus software is a must-have. [alert admin]

Redline 1.0.0 (Mac OS X)
Amazing game. Lots of features beyond the actual race
Well, I've found my next addiction. This is one fun racing game. You not only race cars, you can watch the rerun of each finished race from dozens of different camera angles, which allows you to see where you sped up, and where you slowed down. The cars drive like you'd think real cars would react. I think the reviewer below was overly harsh, and perhaps because he's a heavy gamer. But for $25, I think it's a helluva deal and a lot of fun. Hey, download the demo and give it a try. [alert admin]

Agreed. It'd be really helpful if *censored*tail's site showed a comparison chart to point out any advantages or differences between it and Onyx. If there are, in fact, distinctions, they'd certainly make more sales.

SAFT tiger version: 8.3.11 warning locks safari into rainbow ball of death
I'm unclear why anyone would vote this post as not useful. What's not useful about this? The poster states his problem, his solution (removing Saft), and points out that Saft's site offers no solution to something that many Saft users are experiencing.

Good but with a small bug in the new one
I'm seeing the same bug. It's rare that I have the sound completely off, but when I do, I get this same strange window with the same question.

VersionTracker needs a way to be able to vote these kinds of feedbacks off. As noted, they're not only useless, they do a disservice to the whole reason for Version Tracker.

From here on out, I think every opinion shared on VersionTracker should be followed up by someone saying, "Yeah, FOR YOU, huh!" That way, we'd know that the opinion was, like, an opinion. Versus, say, a scientific fact.

Could be because there are over 26 million Mac Photoshop users, worldwide, that are currently running non-Intel machines. That's my stab in the dark guess.

Camino is wasted space. Why? It doesn't have an espresso maker. In this day and age, that's just criminal. Sure, I could go out and purchase one separately, but *why*!? C'mon developers. Get it together.
