JAYHAWKBABE  A solution for keychain issue I mentioned below:

After several emails with the developer, it became clear that the issue was with my keychain permissions. I tried to run Keychain First Aid from the Keychain Access program and was told that my keychain did not have the right permissions. On a hunch, I fired up the terminal and checked the permissions on the file ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain. The owner was set to root rather than my user name. This was easy to fix using chown. After that, Garage Sale worked just fine!

I am still not sure how the permissions were changed. Perhaps the 10.5.4 update I installed yesterday?  
(Version 5.0.2)

JAYHAWKBABE  Beware before updating from version 5.0.1 to 5.0.2. The latest version seems to have massively broken access to the OS X Keychain, which removes any authorized accounts and prevents them from being added back. It also produces multiple requests to access the Keychain every time the program is started. I tried redownloading and installing the program and reset all of my old preferences--nothing helps.

I just emailed the developer last night, but need to get my hands on version 5.0.1 ASAP because I have auctions running and some finished ones I need to have. The last backup of the program I have is version 5.0.0 which was recently broken by an Ebay API change. The developer on has very old versions for download (3.5.something) from the website and not recent ones!

Very frustrating! I guess I'll be hesitant to update without backing up the program in the future!  
(Version 5.0.2)

JAYHAWKBABE  I, too, really want to like this application and was disappointed by it's speed, or rather lack there of, compared to Preview/Skim for even a small PDF file. I had problems with the PDF displaying funny at times, as well.

In the meantime, I use the FREE program FormulatePro. It's only on version 0.4, so there aren't a lot of bells and whistles, but you can type on forms and it's FREE. Very happy.  
(Version 3.4.1)

JAYHAWKBABE  Hot, hot, hot!! This is gorgeous software and, though still beta, was the final factor in me getting rid of my home made (windoze) media PC and investing in a Mac. When this software matures a bit, it will crush FrontRow. Love it!  
(Version 0.5b1)

JAYHAWKBABE  You can export drawings as a PDF. Last I checked, that is a vector format.

Given that my MacBook Pro can only support 4 GB of RAM, I am guessing that you DO NOT have 8 GB on your PowerBook. I would also add that the program runs very fast on my MacBook Pro.

Please take the time to write a constructive and well-researched review. Shareware developers put a ton of work into their programs. Seeing incorrect and uneducated reviews potentially hurt their sales makes me ill.  
(Version 3.2.1)

JAYHAWKBABE  Quick addition: I was also unsuccessful in importing these PDF files with EasyDraw.  
(Version 2.9.7.1)

JAYHAWKBABE  This is a great illustration/SVG application. I acquired it through the MacUpdate promo this summer and it has turned out be a gem. I am a scientist and use Intaglio to touch up graphs that are exported from various graphing programs. Intaglio is the only application thus far (besides Illustrator) to import the PDFs generated from these programs correctly. I have tried Zeus Draw, Lineform, and OmniGraffle, but Intaglio is the only one which can convert the PDFs to curves correctly and without crashing. Love it!

JAYHAWKBABE  Hmm, I already have Intaglio too...but I am a glutton for drawing programs, it seems.  
(Version 2.3.1)

JAYHAWKBABE  Thanks for getting back to me! I am using the Fink package of GNU p7zip v. 4.44. I did some more testing to better define the issue and determined that the problem was in the decompression of a *.7z archive. (It did not matter if I used 7zX or GNU 7z to create the archive.) Upon decompressing with GNU 7z, the paths (i.e. relative folder structure) were not being preserved. They were, however, when I extracted with 7zX. This made me suspicious, so I double checked the GNU 7z extraction command that I had aliased in my .zshrc. I had mistakenly typed "7z e" instead of "7z x"...*blush* I am embarrassed to say that this was the source of all my problems. Thanks again for your response and the good software. I will likely keep using it because of its convenience. :)  
(Version 1.6.3)

JAYHAWKBABE  An impressive looking piece of software that is useful beyond just creating simple backups. You can also ensure that documents which are edited on multiple machines remain up to date. I used similar software on Windows and am looking forward to trying this. The incorporation of ZeroScan means that it is not necessary for the software to spend time determining which files need to be updated.  
(Version 6.1.1)

JAYHAWKBABE  Best interface and command set I have found in a 7z compression/decompression application. I add it to my dock and then just drag files to compress/extract them. Also, the 7z algorithm has been improved by the author to support OS X resource forks. I am unable to use the GNU implementation of 7z to successfully extract archives created with 7zX. This is not a bug, but evidence that the command has been adapted for the specific needs of the HFS+ filesystem. My only (minor) point of improvement would be to include command line versions of the improved 7z algorithm so it can be used in shell scripts. :)
