The typical shutdown has a scheduler that'll shut down the system, but oftentimes it doesn't do so because an application blocks it. So my computer ends up running for an entire day. I've been looking for an app that'll force quit any applications and shut down, and this does just that. I'm still running Tiger, so I don't know how it'll run on Leopard though. I'm also concerned that this app is a few years old, though I suppose there really isn't any additional features needed.
It works well for pig latin translation. Not very appealling aesthetically - I wish the pig was smaller and that everything wasn't centered - but then again, part of this program is to appeal to kids.
[OSX 10.4.6 w/ iLife 06] I love the menubar calendars, but this one doesn't seem to sync with my iCal. I can't see my events listed, which is the main reason to have this program for me.
Downloaded this program just to check it out. It basically takes a set of loops from an audio track that fades in and out. I sort of wish that you had more control, such as pick specific points to loop. still, a fun program to try out. I hope to see more development in this program.
The widget does what it does, but I'm rather disappointed that there are no third-party gas stations or even ARCO. But I think that's more of a site issue.
Easy to use program. Just click the icon, and it toggles itself on and off. Does EXACTLY what it says. Helps out when you want to design for a PC, or when you want to calibrate your screen to printers and such. (Using OS 10.4.3)
The program works well, and the design is pretty slick. Very easy to use. Great alternative to other weather programs, and a good companion for weather.com. I found that the workday function doesn't switch automatically.
Just some suggestions. I would have liked an option to just hear the "speech" utility used when I start the program. It would have been nice if there was an option to be placed onto the menubar too. Would be nice if there was an option for the window to be in front all the time. Also, maybe find a better way to minimize those sliding windows. But these are just cosmetic. The program remains great. Get it!
