JACOBUS77  Hey y'all, it's 2009, and when I click on the link to download TurboMem, it takes me here:

http://www.macunicorn.com/downloads.htm

Which is hosted by a domain site and shows nothing at all about TurboMem or about any kind of Unicorn Sofware.

Does this still exist or is it a goner?

Sorry I couldn't find any other way to get this message to you.

Thx

OnyX
Jul 3 2009
*****

JACOBUS77  I have used Onyx with Jaguar, Panther and Tiger. (Haven't seen a burning need to get Leopard.) I have found it to be well-planned and highly valuable. I believe the majority here value it too. Those who find fault with it, I swear would find fault with someone handing them a silver dollar. It works great and it's free.

Esthetics: I LIKE the brushed-metal-with-Aqua-accents. Maybe because I like OSX and its Aqua interface?

Interface: Straightforward and useable, IMHO. There are improvements that could be made, as there are to any software. And nothing the writer does can possibly please everybody.

Functionality: Gives excellent command over more of the system than any other utility I can think of. I've found the defaults to be quite safe on all the Macs I've tested it on. I did have a merry dance fixing one after I checked one too many boxes, but that was my fault, not Onyx. Permissions repair seems better booting from the system DVD, but Onyx does almost every OSX-Unix maintenance routine you can do from a hard drive session. And that is a lot.
