Focus 2.6 (Mac OS X)
Great replacement for floating clock 
capability that was deleted in Leopard. I don't really care to know which application is in front by using this app, but I do miss the ability to have a floating analog clock that I can place on my second monitor. I am often running programs on the main monitor that hide the menu bar, but leave the second monitor free. By using Focus, and turning the transparency option on the app icon to 0% I now have just the floating clock I want. Thanks very much for this simple, yet satisfying little program. [alert admin]

VueScan 8.3.43 (Mac OS X)
This software is total crap. It does work after a fashion, though it is confusing, but the developer has the worst attitute toward his customers I have every encountered. I purchased the professional version of this program in March 2005. I only use it infrequently, but every time it is launched it requires that I reapply for a serial number or it will only load in demo mode. Getting that serial number means filling out a form proving ownership and then waiting for an email response. In the meantime I'm SOL. Like most designers, my work schedule is chaotic and unconventional. Not getting a response at midnight to unlock software that I own is not acceptable. Giving this guy money for this behavior is insane. [alert admin]

CopyDrop 1.0.3 (Mac OS X)
A great replacement for Copy Agent
This program does exactly what it says it does: smart replacement of files. It is extremely easy and simple to operate. And in my case, it solved a problem I had with NAS and NFS. Copying files using NFS protocol from OS X to a WD-NetCenter through the Finder is approximately 1/10th as fast as using SMB/CIF. I tried everything to find a way to speed up NFS because of the file naming problems with SMB. Nothing worked until I tried this program. It says it works through the Finder, and it does rely on the Finder to determine what to copy, but for the actual file transfer it uses the Finder only with single files. For folders and multiple files it uses an Open Source UNIX package called psync. In effect this works like a command-line copy (very fast) without the hassle of actually working in a command-line environment. In my case that meant a throughput increase to approx 6MB/sec from 600KB/sec on a 100T ethernet LAN. Overall, it does what Copy Agent did under OS 9, but it also keeps a log of all files that are involved in Console logs. Well worth every dime. Thanks. [alert admin]
