About Sam
I'm a student from New Zealand. Total Apple fan been brought up with them. First computer was a Mac SE at age 4 then at about age 6 with great excitement got a powermac running OS 7 that was cool. Then at age 9 I saved up enough money to buy a grape iMac. I thought it was the most wonderful thing in the world. I got an iMac G5 at age 15 and now at age 18 I have a brand new Macbook Pro. Thats my life in Macs.

This game is simply fantastic, great fun, clever and original (and I feel a bit bad-ass at the same time!)

Awesome game for those who have the urge to cause virtual destruction. And aw man, the upgrades, it certainly has the upgrades!

Thanks Ambrosia for updating to universal binary, I'll be sure to have a crack at it once I'm finished my exams ("sure I have time for just one more high security hack.......").

Well worth a shot!

I gotta hand it to these guys, this is one tight bit of software. Vastly better than Parallels for the following reasons:

Stability is perfect - One of the first time I used Parallels it kernel paniced when I was showing my mates ... awesome.

It's easy to work - A lot of my customers want something that'll just work rather than something which requires a lot of knowledge to use, Fusion allows for this. How many "I can't do this on Fusion" phone calls have I had? None, as opposed to Parallels.

It's faster - Windows and Ubuntu are blazing fast on my Macbook Pro.

The interface is neat and tidy.

The support and features are great (the new features in version 2 look amazing (I wish I had two monitors to try it out on)!)

As a whole the software doesn't feel clunky or bloated like Parallels.

I work in an Apple premium reseller and whilst we sell a boxed version of Parallels and no VMware fusion I'm straight up with the customer and tell them VMware's the one to go for. Hell I'd be hacked off if someone sold be Parallels instead.

Free upgrade to 2.0 is just the icing on the cake, Parallels may I remind people is a PAID upgrade for every major update (eg 2-3).

Respect VMware, I will continue to send my customers your way!

hahah dude seriously I don't think you can get more OSX than Adium without being Apple themselves. It's brilliant, I've never had it crash since I took the Classic to 10 leap in December 2004. My constant friend, whom I wouldn't survive without!

Sorry to heap you've had bad experiences, hope they get fixed :)

This is a darn fine game, the most addictive puzzle game I have every played and I have tried many.

Once you start playing you can't stop the ball reactions are gorgeous and the physics is fun and not completely realistic. The best kind.

Definitely worth the money I paid ($10).

Absolutely wonderful!

Only thing I can suggest is different weighting for assignment individually.

Ambrosia, I love you dearly, I don't have an iPhone ecause I live overseas but good job sticking it to Apple. I'm a massive Apple geek but his move to pay for ringtones is just stupid. If iPhone comes out here I'll be buying your program straight away.

Brilliant if one knows (kinda) what they are doing, just watch the hacking WEP with KisMac video on youTube if you have any questions.

Oh I kicks I get driving around and seeing all these networks!

KisMac how I adore thee. The only thing I ask is re-injection ability with my D-Link DWL-G122 apart from that it works like a god.

Haven't had any stability issues.

I don't know if this is coincidence but after installing the latest update on my 2.4ghz Macbook Pro whenever I try to boot a VM in Parallels the computer does the screen screen gets covered in grey and says please restart your mac. Upon restarting I cannot start it up until I have started it up from the disk and found the HD using Disk utility. Can someone steer me in the right direction as to what to do?

This program has changed how I go about my life. I was hesitant at first but spent a few minutes getting to grips with it and it's done wonders, it does what a to-do list can't or a schedular is impractial at. And there is still heaps more features for me to learn about to make me even more productive. And a price you can't refuse. You're a legend mate, cheers.

Nice Apple, in the spirit of Halloween update bootcamp. Sure its sounds good but running windows on a mac is scarier than anything that'll come knocking on my door :O

Yeah damn straight, this is a terrific piece of software. And visual hub is too. I personally don't have a use for all the extras (yet) but good on this guy for keeping this free. He's the man. Good on him for the cunning marketing for visual hub, create one of the most popular mac programs keeping it free then using it to promote a more advanced version. Good on him!

Wooooohooooo. This game is a stunner, bloody frightening, but awesome. Aspyr does a perfect conversion and runs like a gem of my 1st gen iMac G5. No crashes, no problems (except the odd nightmare) wow

Utterly fantastic how MSN should be, uninvasive, stylish and actually useful! I couldn't live without this program!

If there is one thing I think it should get it's audio and video support!

Awesome
