Retrospect

Islandmacman reviewed on 23 Apr 2012

Bit the bullet, bought the upgrade and upgraded servers, desktops, the whole nine yards....

It works ok - the issue I sometimes see is a freeze during restores. A force quit and relaunch resolves it, but it just seems flaky at times.

With all the force quitting I've been doing, the app never lost settings or users. Is that a good thing? lol

But when it works, it works well. Not bad for the money.

Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition

Islandmacman reviewed on 05 Apr 2012

Meh - Sophos is better than most, but it still slows the machine down. You can almost hear the Mac screaming WTF are you doing to me?!?

I'd rather run free and naked - but be wise as to where you go, what you download, and when you enter that all-powerful admin pwd you better make damn sure you know what you're installing. PEACE!

Apple Safari

Very disappointed - slow as hell, beachballs when quitting... I have 10 Gbs of RAM and nothing else running on a 50Mbps line...
switching to Chrome.

Google Chrome

Bloated piece of spyware. The only good it has it to use 3rd party propreietary plugins for watching video. Other than that, I'd rather eat a bitter lemon.
