CARTER BECKETT  This is a great app that I have used for a number of years. Maybe you guys

who are bitching so much about the price, should have responded to the

developer (a high school student) when he asked for donations in exchange

for a free license for version 2. I sent him a donation 2 years ago, and the

new vendor was happy to issue me my free serial number !

JOSHK  Hooray! I can enjoy a (still) overpriced app with no auto shutdown or useful new features from the original, free version in a couple more languages.

MUGSUK  nice piece of software, but not really viable as shareware when there is other software (like iceclean) which does exactly the same thing and more for free.

CUCHULAINN  I am not cheap and have absolutely *NO* problem paying for any software that has perceived value. I had no problem paying for Tiger Cache Cleaner and have upgraded that to Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner. I would have no problem paying for Onyx if the charged for it as it does a ton for its low, low price of free. I wouldn't have any problem paying for Cocktail either. So making a purchase based on the value of the software is not a problem.

What *is* a problem is that Snow Leopard Cache cleaner does a whole lot more than Main Menu for $14.95, Cocktail also does a whole lot more than Main Menu and is likewise $14.95, Onyx too does a whole lot more than Main Menu and is free of charge.

I would be willing to pay somewhere between $5 - $10 for Main Menu if it offered something of value beyond the still working FREE 1.7.4 version, which still works fine for me.

Sadly, there is nothing of value over the free version. Particularly there is absolutely nothing worth a $20 increase in price when far better software is available for less.

JOSHK  still no auto-shutdown, still no fair price. Sorry, but back to Onyx for me. All they need to do now is make it accessible via a menu. I would even pay for it.

ITTY  This version includes some nice additions. The Growl option is useful to those who like Growl. However there is still one glaring omission that is still missing from the original version and that is the Shutdown option in the Batch Tasks options. Why this was removed is a mystery to me. I still use Main Menu v.1.7.4 because of this. I like to run Main Menu at night as part of my shutdown procedure. With v.2.03 I have to stand around and wait for the Computer to restart so I can then shut it down and leave for the night.

At least they are listening and have added all the old features back (except one) and also have added in some new ones.

When they add back the Shutdown option, then they will have a product that's worth the money, to me.
