REQUIREMENTS
PPC / Intel, Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later
Huh? No one sees there's something wrong with this statement? If an PPC machine cannot install Intel ONLY Snow Leopard OS X 10.6, how can this product claim to be UB?
Either make an UB app and make Mac OS X 10.5.8 as the minimum requirement, OR have an Intel ONLY version and require Mac OS X 10.6 and later...
Sometimes I am not sure if these software developers REALLY understood what "Universal Binary" means. I just can't believe they claim this version is UB compatible on their website!
Menu Master
I have purchase this program back in 2009 for my PowerBook G4, and recently I have problem with my computer, so I reinstalled Leopard again, but I need PPC compatible version of Menu Master. I have sent them email two times during the summer (August 2011), I have included my order# and asked if they can send me the latest PPC compatible MM, but there's nobody from these email (unsanity@unsanity.com, feedback@unsanity.com, support@unsanity.com) have replied my question. I had to go for a wild goose chase online to get my self a free copy of the last PPC version of MM from some legacy software site. I have been a fan of Unsanity's haxie products, but I am very disappointed with their support!!!

To the developer: WHERE is the bug fix update that you promised to released few days ago on your forum?
Boxcar
MU: Please fix the system requirements on this page.
MACUPDATE: Never mind my other "double posts" on Troubleshooting section, the new UI for MU is really confusing and easy to miss those tabs!!!!

Boxer
Elegraphy reviewed on 03 Aug 2011
Today I thought I'll give Boxer a try, I downloaded it and I went to google for a copy of BurgerTime... within seconds the game were running in Boxer! I couldn't believe this game actually works in Boxer!!!
The tiny problem I have is the audio were kind of chirpy and not very smooth, I am not sure it has anything to do with Boxer or I just need a better copy of the same game. But despite that, I am still very grateful to the developer of Boxer for this wonderful DOS game emulator.

The graphic of BurgerTime from 1982 looks exactly like I remembered :) I follow your tip and lower the CPU speed and Frame rate, the sound improves a lot, the game play becomes much smoother, and is closed to what it used to be. You are right, 'better' isn't always better. People have nostalgia with old DOS games because it brings back their innocent time of their childhood back in the early 80's. BurgerTime was the first computer game I ever played, it was introduced to me on a friend's PC back in 1985, and that was my first year in U.S., LOL! Brings back a lot of good memories...
Thanks again for this great emulator. You made an old fart like me very happy....

NoMenuBar
Elegraphy reviewed on 17 Nov 2010
So what if there's more of the same apps on the Mac community? Why is that a bad thing?
For example, there is tons of Application Launcher type of apps on MacUpdate, I can name a few here: Butler, Launch Bar, QuickSilver, TapTap, Spark, Overflow, ToDos, F10 Launch Studio, Sapiens, Trampoline, Atomic Beef, XMenu, HimmelBar, aLaunch, DragThing, DockSpaces...And tons more! I never heard anyone complained about "There just too much application launchers to chose from, darn it!" Actually most people likes to have choices, and people usually find a launcher that fits their needs.
COMMENT:
To me, NoMenuBar works and looks just like Menuola, but to me it's just another choice of the same. Maybe someone can tell me which app uses less cpu (and memory) in the long run. I see there is no way to make NoMenuBar (and Menuola) as a System Preference item, because seems to me they only show up when you click their Dock icons. I hate to say this, but I like to save more space on my Dock, too. I dislike to have one more Dock icon open if It ends up just launch something on my menu bar.
FOR DEVELOPERS, "MENU ITEM CONTAINER" IS WHAT WE URGENTLY NEED:
I think there should be a Menu Item Container for people who loves to use menu items. If anyone can make this concept realized, then this new app will act like another menu item, only it's a container, so it will list all the other menu items that have opened on my Mac, so I can save tons of menubar space no mater how much menu items I have launched!!! If any developer can make this concept work and usable, I would definitely worship him everyday and support his app!!! Seriously.
TIP:
I only have one "obvious" tip when use this app: If you have FriutMenu, you'll save even more menu space when launch NoMenuBar or Menuola.

Twitterrific
For people who have 2+ Twitter accounts, I found a usable solution to force Twitterrific to open another copy, so copies of Twitterrific can co-exist on menubar, and follow individual account simultaneously!
To do so, make a second copy your Twitterrific.app and paste it on your desktop, rename it and then put it back next to your original copy. I renamed my 2nd copy as "Ollie.app", the name of Twitterrific's Mascot.
Have your original Twitterrific open and put it to work. When you open the renamed copy, it will login into the account you already opened in your 1st Twitterrific copy, but you can change it easily. In your rename copy, press Commend L to show the login window, now login to your 2nd account. To distinguish the renamed copy from the original, you can change the alert sound, and re-color the meun icon to easily spot the difference on menubar!
The only drawback of this method is that when you put both copies as 'Open at login' item, both copies would login into the same Twitter account you last login, I guess this is because both copies using the same preference file. So make sure to use Commend L trick again on one of your copies.
Maybe in the future Twitterrific would support multi-accounts, but in the meantime I am pretty happy to use this method to follow my Twitter accounts.
Quicksilver
I believe the last PPC version of Quicksilver is B58.

iBeeZz
Couple days ago I had some other problems and I looked into the Console window, I saw a lot of error logs from iBeeZz. I haven't been use iBeeZz lately, but it was on my startup app item. The error messages of iBeeZz seems none-stop by every second on the log, and it kept complaining about it couldn't find the directory of this certain file that belongs to iBeeZz. So I uninstalled iBeeZz and it's associated files from my PB right away. After it's gone from my system, Voila! The audio came back right away and it has been steady like it should, and no more losing sound again.
I am not sure why uninstall iBeeZz would cured my audio problem, but I am sad that iBeeZz is such a good tool, but I cannot have it on my PB until someone look into this problem and fix it.
