	Nov 30 2006	IKE1999 Scrabble 1.0 is a great game, but be warned, it's extremely addictive. Can't believe the new words I've learned since I started playing (the game's dictionary is an awesome tool). Adults will love the game, but it's a great game for middle school kids and older. Have noticed something on the "negative" side that might be a unique issue with my G4. After playing 4 or 5 games in a row, the graphics' animation slow down. A restart of the Mac, and all is right with the world. (Version 1.0)		0

THEL No, the issue isn't unique to your G4, IKE1999...

There's definitely some major bloat/leak happening somewhere as the Scrabble app runs. I monitor CPU usage (in the top menu bar) constantly, using MenuMeters, and by the middle of the fourth or fifth consecutive Scrabble game, my 1 GHz G4 hits 100% and the game lags severely, requiring a quit and relaunch to clear [whatever-it-is] out of the way.

None of my other apps behave this way, and it's 100% repeatable, even when only the Finder and Scrabble are running.

I *love* the game! But this certainly needs to be fixed.

Discus	Nov 13 2005	JIM ISAAC This has to one of my favorite applications. Have used only the OS 10.x versions (I'm now running OS 10.4.3), and it works great. The labels I create have my friends thinking I had a CD made by a professional. (Version 3.13)		0

Norton AntiVirus Definitions	May 12 2004	JIM ISAAC Good info. I used the link provided by MacUpdate and got a 4/26/04 set of defs. LiveUpdate is another way to get the correct file. (Version 05/04)		0
