Also, why isn't there an option to manually place the notification?
Wouldn't it make more sense to be able to place it beside the dock in the corner of the screen to fill in the gap? Is there a reason this can't be done?

Not always, since sometimes you can find the demo version on official site. In this case it is true but cmon... it cost like a coffe and this THANKS to App Store, we pay little for multilicence, lifetime updates... :)

My problem is not that of developers making well deserved money. My problem is with Apple for the extortion to the developer, who has to pay a cut (mafia stile), to the end user who either buys at the Apple app store or is out of luck, the Mac community which in the long run is the loser.

It would be fine to offer a more convenient to users, it is down right wrong not to have an option of where to buy. If you buy at the Apple Store you are endorsing Apple's 30% extortion on developers, which you pay. I am honestly surprised more Mac users are NOT making an issue out of this.

For new Mac users the Apple Store is a great idea. Right there in the Dock is a world of Mac applications, many of them free. I buy some of my software from the Apple Store, but most elsewhere.

None of the apps that used Growl, TypeIt4Me, Skype and TechTool Pro would launch and threw up a window full of data as to why.
Running uninstall failed to solve the problem, so I removed all the Growl items with Find Any File. Next I downloaded and installed the three apps again and all is working - except for Growl which I will never install again.

I retried a few seconds after and this time apparently the installation succeeded. Is it normal? What could have happened?
