FileStorm		Jan 16 2008

SOSARIAN  FileStorm is a utility for making disk images, not necessarily including an installer at all. Developers indeed should only use installers when absolutely necessary, but that's really nothing to do with FileStorm.

SOSARIAN  FileStorm 1.9.1 usually fails in its disk image finalizing process under Leopard (10.5 and 10.5.1). They have apparently fixed this problem internally a couple of months ago but are sitting on the fix for some reason.

If MindVision could just release 1.9.2 with this one fix, FileStorm would be great again. I hope they're not expecting to make people pay for an upgraded 2.0 in order to get a fix for this problem.

Bottom line, if you're a Leopard user, 1.9.1 may be a waste of your time and money.

KARSTEN@BRIKSOFTWARE.COM  yeah that's true... this app is insanely great for creating cool custom dmg files, but it's most unfortunate that it behaves so badly in 10.5... if you need to finalize a dmg more than once while your mac is running it's really hard to do so. it seems that sometimes the dmg is not unmounted properly and then you really have to restart your mac to have the finalization process working again :-/

anyway, still the best app to create custom disk images
