Best keyboard shortcut manager I've come across at a price that can't be beat.

Echoing what others have said. It's a cool idea with a pretty nice implementation. The author needs to rethink the price though. $20 I *might* buy it, $15 I would probably buy it, but at $30 there is just no chance.

Best secure data storage app I've come across. Simply, easy-to-see interface, powerful feature-set, has never crashed on me. A winner.

"Upgrade"? What upgrade? All I see is a small list of bug fixes. A licensing system that finally works like every other mac app, and a couple bug fixes regarding features we already paid for and therefore have a reasonable expectation of working properly without paying additional money.

Doesn't seem to work right with Spaces. Only sometimes displays Windows from non-active spaces.

You should instead get the latest FireFox 3 beta at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html . It has all the goodies you're talking about, but is far more stable and tested. FireFox 4.0 won't be released for a year or more, and the builds are extremely preliminary.

The full release is out. Check out the developer's website. This game was delayed to a ridiculous degree, but I must say, the end result is fantastic. All the levels from the original two Dark Castles are perfectly reproduced with tasteful upgrades to the graphics that in no way detract from the gameplay. The control system and responses are identical to those of the original games. The game seems to be thoroughly debugged, and I have yet to encounter any glitches whatsoever (rare in the first release of a platform game). I would have appreciated a little more variety in the music (the same few tracks are repeated for most levels), but hey, the originals didn't even have background music, so this is a small complaint.

Basically, if you were a fan of the original dark castle games, you won't be disappointed by this. If you've never played dark castle, get this anyway, as it is one of the best platform games available for any system.

This version just gives me the following error when Safari launches:

"Failed to load the Keywurl plugin.

*** -[NSCFNumber objectForKey:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x214450"

It's a two-click operation in iTunes to convert an MP3 to an AAC file. As of the current version of the iPhone software and iTunes, all you really need to do is change the extension of an AAC file to .m4r and drag it into iTunes to have it recognised as a ringtone. You could write a simple applescript to automate the process if you really wanted to. I just don't see how it's worth $15 to perform this task.

The application MakeiPhoneRingTone seems to do the same thing, only for free . . .

The reason Alsoft is always slow to update is that they do it right. People use DiskWarrior because it is the most reliable and effective when it comes to repairing your disk. If you want this level of reliability, you have to be patient while they do extensive testing to ensure that any new version works as well as previous versions. You can either have frequent updates, or you can have *good* updates.

Please stop doing this. A webbrowser is one of the most difficult applications to do well. People need to stop just releasing the first webkit front-end they create while playing in Xcode. You can make a webkit webbrowser without even entering a line of your own code.

Before even thinking about releasing a webbrowser, you need to consider the following:

1. What important features or user experience am I going to introduce that is not found in any existing browser available today?

2. Do I have the experience and skills to effectively undertake this very extensive task?

There are useful applications that can be created without years of programming experience (How about making a preference pane to manage Input Managers?), but browsers are not one of them.

Firmware updates just fix problems, they don't add new features. Apple releases firmware update even to models that were discontinued years ago if there is a specific issue for which an update is needed. Why do you think your firmware needs an update?

Seems very cool. I only wish it was setup to handle more than just licence files, because while its licence-handling abilities surpass those of Steel (my current secure-storage app), it is not very practical for the storage of other types of records, and I don't wish to migrate one data type only to an entirely different application.

I recently heard from the developers. Apparently, the game is pretty much level and feature complete at this point, and they're claiming a summer release date. Of course, after 5 years, I'm a bit skeptical, but it's still nice to hear work is being done on the project.

OK, I'm trying to figure out what exactly you downloaded. Enhancer 3.x doesn't touch the resources related to the menubar, so I don't see how it could possibly effect the "mail link" items in any way. In addition, Enhancer 3 should be compatible with any version of Safari officially available for OS 10.4...
