RPN Scientific Calculator
Jul 28 2009
****.

KRIS BROWNE  Fans of the HP RPN calculators will find the layout less familiar, but for anyone just wanting a generic RPN calculator and not a clone of some lost favorite, satisfying.

Angband
Jul 27 2009
****.

KRIS BROWNE  Amid the Rogue family of games, there are those descended of Nethack (which are direct Rogue descendants) and those descended of Moria. Of the Moria family, Angband is the most successful, most consistent, and to my mind most fun.

While there are tilesets available to play with a modicum of graphics, I still always play text only. I know in my minds eye what the various creatures look like, and no game will ever match the resolution of my imagination, even if they might have superior framerates.

KRIS BROWNE  The problem with Boxer is that it hasn't been updated in half a year, is still tied to the old and much less nice Dosbox .72. I like the interface of Boxer better, but Dapplegrey is updated like every other week.

FOOFOORABBIT  As of the 10th, Boxer now uses DOSBox 0.73.

ALUN BESTOR  (Not to hijack Dapplegrey's comments section, but...) Boxer is still in active development and as Foofoorabbit observed, recent betas now include DOSBox 0.73 - however, an official release is still some time away, and the betas lack niceties like localisation and rigorous testing. You can follow Boxer beta versions from the blog on the Boxer website.

Zimbra Collaboration Suite
Feb 2 2008

KRIS BROWNE  The ownership by Yahoo doesn't trouble me as much as what will happen if(when is more likely) microsoft buys Yahoo. As someone else said, Zimbra really offers a well designed Exchange competitor stack, and I can't see MS letting that stand.

Chax

KRIS BROWNE  Chax has now become my hero....

With the various Jabber servers I use doing server gateways, I don't need wide protocol support, mainly just XMPP, and with the advent of the intelligent Unified Contacts... iChat has become my default IM again!
