EarthDesk

Sgginc reviewed on 19 May 2012

Of all the screen savers I have this is the only one I use.
I like to watch the clouds/storms.
The rendition of the earth and clouds are beautiful.
There are a lot of options to choose from on how you want the map/clouds displayed.
Well worth the price (including the $9.95/yr) for me.

VirusBarrier X6

Sgginc reviewed on 03 May 2012

This program has spawned 14 “virusbarrier” processes consuming 2+ GB of Real Memory and 1-5% CPU EACH.
I also have been having problems with Versions hanging.
After uninstalling, my Versions is now back to normal.

Others have reported issues with Time Machine.

With this program all over the map like this it bears extreme caution before buying.

ControllerMate

Sgginc reviewed on 20 Apr 2012

This is one of my favorite programs.
I just customized the three top buttons on my Logitech N305 keypad.

I have also customized the “ball flick” on my trackpad (when it was supported): If I flicked it up then down a keystroke was played. If I flicked it right then left another action was triggered. Newer drivers for my trackpad are not supported by Controllermate. I have a Logitech Cordless Optical Trackman (the best ever made IMO).

Thanks ... Ken

PaintSupreme

Why use dark grey text on a black background?
It’s barely readable!
Don’t let Apple influence you too much.
A little color and contrast would make it much easier to use.

Window Magician

Sgginc commented on 12 Mar 2012

This would be a killer utility if it could remember a window’s current position without having to enter all the pixel information for position and size.
Just auto populate the window of interest’s current position/size information.
Will probably buy and hope this is implemented later.

Find & Replace It!

Sgginc reviewed on 14 Feb 2012

This is a great utility except for some really irritating things:
When you update none of your settings (windows open and placement) including the registration are remembered.
Registration is convoluted: Copying and pasting are not implemented. Drag and drop does not work.
The program is not intuitive enough to easily recreate the working environment I prefer.
The file selection window is not very long, like about 2-3 files are shown at one time. Scrolling in it is problamatic.
Of the hundreds of programs I have none of them trash the preferences every time there is an update.
The developer has a way to copy the old Pref file, but why is this needed?

Come on and fix it!!!
Thanks ... Ken

Upgrading to 204 fixed it. The windows are restored!!! The registration SEEMS to still be valid (I’m afraid to click on Activate). The file selection window was OK in 203 and still OK in 204. Good work!!!

If you like to be organized this is for you.
Developer is highly responsive.

I have v3 Preview 1 (I no longer know how I got it).
They mention a Preview 2 on their site but no way to download it.
