M. LUTHER  Works fine for me. And if a stoopid monkey can get it working, then its gotta be something funky with your system.

M. LUTHER  GREAT app. I maintain 5 Macs, and have purchased and owned close to two dozen Macs over the years. It is great to have an app like this with all its information. Easily 5 starts, especially given that its free.

M. LUTHER  You can't be serious. It doesn't take a genius to figure out how it would harm the developer if they removed the distorted video in unpaid copies. Unless they intend for this to be freeware, the developer is doing the right thing.

M. LUTHER  Am I reading right that it took you 2 phone calls and one hour to figure out how to remove the $7 download rights for a year charge? It only took me a few seconds to click the X and remove it from my cart. I appreciate your detailed review, but your opening sentences make me wonder if I'm really going to have the same problems with version 4 as you experienced.

M. LUTHER  I ran deLocalizer on my iMac that just got a fresh install of 10.5.5, plus some other software like Office and a few other titles. I saved over 3GB removing all the foreign languages. That's a heck of a lot of space for something I'll never, ever use.

M. LUTHER  Similar thing here. On 2-pass my videos stop soon after the second pass begins. On single pass my videos stop after a few minutes of encoding. I am going back to version 0.9.1 on my 10.5 Mac so hopefully everything will work hunky dory again.

M. LUTHER  GREAT app. Because of this app I was able to buy a used iPhone to use with my old AT&T plan which I have had before the merge w/Cingular. I have to use unlocked phones on my account or else AT&T/Cingular will make me loose my 1000 min 2-phone family plan for $59 (free nights/weekends/M-M) and upgrade to a lesser plan that costs more. Ummm... NO THANK YOU. Plus, I am around WiFi almost all the time so don't really need to pay $20/mo for Edge. This FREE program Unlocked my iPhone so I could pop in my old SIMM and am good to go. It was pretty easy to used ... look at iClarified.com for helpful instructions. Thanks to the developers. I will look for a way to donate when I get some cash in my paypal account. 5 star app by far!

iStat Menus
Aug 29 2007
*****

M. LUTHER  Great little app! Like another reviewer, this has now replaced MenuMeters for me. That was a great program, but iStat menus is more fully featured with fan speed and temp that MM does not have. Also, I like the calendar that pops up when I click the date. However, it does not use my international preferences which is month/day/year but instead puts the date as day/month/year.

One other tiny difference is that MenuMeters allowed me to open internet preferences under the network usage, and Activity Monitor under CPU usage, but those options do not exist in iStat menus.

However, on the whole iStat menus is a better program and has more features, so I am using iStat menus. Keep up the great work!

iVisit X
Jun 21 2006
*½...

M. LUTHER  7-8 years ago when iVisit was beta and then the 1.0 version was released, it was a great app. Of course, most folks only had dial-up back then, so you got like 0.1 fps, but audio was very good. It was still very cool. PC folks had a lot of compatibility issues, but that will always be the case. The program just worked on the Mac.

Today you have free programs like iChat AV and SightSpeed for videoconferencing, which produce very good results with broadband everywhere, and they are constantly being updated. iVisit looks the same and has the same basic features as it did 7 years ago, except now you gotta pay $50/yr to use it. Not only that, it has become populated with perverts and the type of people willing to use their CC for pron sites. It's sad to see this piece of software stuck back where it was years ago and for its online community to tranform into what it is today.

Even when iChat first came out many Mac users (myself included) still promoted iVisit as the premiere videoconferencing solution for the Mac. In the past couple of years I don't think I have seen one person recommend iVisit as an alternative for videoconferencing.

M. LUTHER  Nice app. Works great to dim my SUPER-BRIGHT iMac G5 2.1GHz. Now I can work late at night and not be blinded. But the Sun icon is ugly. I replaced it with an icon of an Apple display.
