WEB-JIVE Kids don't read labels like we do and I have been buying software long enough (30 years) to know this. Kids and unaware people don't. I think what a lot of us geeks forget is that the laymen doesn't. I know this because I own a web design and hosting company and the questions I run into are the most basic for us, a duh thing, but not for the non-techie. My point in all this was to warn those who aren't aware of these restrictions and to point out it's in fine print when it should be more prominent (no sarcasm). I used to buy 65mil annually in software for ALLTEL so purchasing is my forte but not my daughters, a non-techie. @D9 your right, always read the label and contract when you buy.. ;-) (Version 1.0) | |

WEB-JIVE Buyer beware. EA decided to make this Intel only. My daughter bought this, brought it home and came downstairs really upset. When she pointed out on the box in fine print it only runs on Intel, I was not very happy with EA! That's her $50 which is a lot of money for a kid to lose due to fine print. (Version 1.0) | |

The Sims 3 | Jun 4 2009 |
D9 Trondah is right (though a bit too sarcastic). Since the dawn of software, system requirements have been on software boxes albeit usually in obscure places with small type. Besides being Intel-only, you should also be concerned about whether you're system has enough graphics power, hard drive space, processing power and/or the minimum OS. This goes for Windows software as well as Mac. It's just good sense to always check system requirements prior to buying any software. Unfortunately, that's a lesson your daughter learned the hard way. (Version 1.0) | |

MISCHIVO Of all the complaints that could be made about this game, yours is the least legitimate of all. Fine print is applicable and justifiable in all such cases, whether you're a minor or not. If it's not in the fine print, it has to go somewhere; perhaps half the box should be taken up by "medium print". Is that what you would like? The blame lies in your daughter for not reading the system requirements, not on the manufacturer for not making it of an arbitrarily large enough size for her to pay attention to. (Version 1.0) | |

WEB-JIVE I have played with MarsEdit and it's a solid product with a promising future. One thing I would love to see is true Joomla support and then it would be a product I could recommend to all my customers with Macs. Jommla just passed the 3mil mark download for their 1.5x product in just a year so it's a large viable market. (Version 2.2.3) | |

WEB-JIVE Why should I have to use two tools? Also, my vote is what it is. If I decide that's an important feature to me and I only give it two stars, then so be it. I'm not bashing it, just letting Panic know that I (and maybe others) want a file comparison. If they had that, I would ditch BBEdit (which is a good, not great editor but, getting long in the tooth). (Version 1.5) | |

WEB-JIVE This is a nice add-on to any sysadmins arsenal. What I have found though is it's not useful for remote file ownership management because when you CMD-I to set ownership, Finder and Pathfinder pulls the local systems owner and group information. Other than that, it's great to be able to manage files via finder on a remote SFTP system. Just keep the SSH terminal ready to set proper ownership and group permissions (or keep Yummy FTP or another FTP client around to help with the chore). Great product.... Much more stable than Macfuse. (Version 1.15) | |

WEB-JIVE I have been following this product for a while now and what baffles me is why it still doesn't support private/public SSH keys?

WEB-JIVE This my personal opinion on the software. I'm not mad, just hitting myself on the forehead because I leapt before looking. My internet connection has been up and down today and this is adding a considerable amount of time for my restores due to the issue outlined below: I should have read the reviews before plunking down $200 on this product. What I didn't realize was that the software needs to have a FULL TIME internet connection which validates the software every time you initiate a restore. What does this mean? If you have 20,000 files you need to restore and you choose to selectively restore (say you click a file, then restore, it finishes and you select another and start restore), each time it's going to phone home before the restore starts and transmit the amount of data your restoring and check validation. I would recommend anyone who has a restore situation where you don't have access to the internet bypass this software. "Highlights of this Agreement: These terms and conditions are presented at the time of the sale, and your acceptance of them is required if you wish to place an order for our product(s) or service(s). If you do not accept these terms, then leave this site and do not order our product(s) or service(s).

We record information such as your computer IP, file saving activity and payment details. This information is used solely for accountability purposes." The author could have just made it so that when you register the software, it creates a system key which is transmitted to their servers and then validates the software by installing their key locally. That would have prevented a lot of piracy (which is the authors primary concern) and is similar to what iTunes does. It's good at what it does but the author thinks that for $200 he's entitled to your restore information. What it boils down to is the software can only be used on one machine at a time (very fair) but your REQUIRED to have an internet connection active to re-validate the software each and every time you start a data restore and to transmit your restore data back to them. Very invasive for a "rescue" situation. (Version 1.1.5) | |
