Absolutely beautiful upscaling--better than QuickTime or VLC's to my eye. DVDs look nearly HD. More documentation about how to set up the media library would be helpful. Heck, more documentation period. |

I don't know how Adobe did it, but they managed to produce the worst version of the Flash plugin yet. I hope this is an early beta and there's a lot of improvements yet to come. |

There really doesn't seem to be a use for this with Perian around. |

3.0b1 is somewhat buggy, but the nightlies following it are greatly improved. Less daring users should probably wait until 3.0b2, especially since more extensions will be updated by then. That said, text rendering quality (and web rendering in general) and memory usage are vastly improved over Firefox 2. Brave testers should visit https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397723 to download a preview of the new theme that will be featured when 3.0 goes final. |

Input Managers still work, with some restrictions: "The requirements (from the AppKit release notes, which aren't yet posted on developer.apple.com): * /Library/InputManagers only * Must be owned by root user and admin group, with no write permissions for group or other (755/644). * Processes running as root user or with wheel group won't load them. * Processes can't change user/group id * No 64-bit processes" |

Give away a crippled app for free, then sell "plugins" ($20 a pop, $40 for a bundle) to restore functionality to it? Interesting business model, to be sure. |

Even people who buy Windows PCs are rejecting Vista in droves, so this isn't really surprising. It's not the fault of Parallels, it's that you purchased a crappy OS to run on it. |

This is a joke, right? A gigantic launcher for a whole 11 programs. |

The default iTunes 7 skin is pretty bad. This somehow manages to be worse. Reminds me of the bad old days of Kaleidoscope schemes. |

There's a massive memory leak somewhere in this. After a few days running it consumes 100+ MB of physical memory. |

Hooray, it's a $20 version of Quicksilver *and* the developer demands you give him your Mac's serial number before you can buy a copy. Paranoid much? |

Yes, because lots of people are going to confuse an iTunes controller with a virtual KVM switch. |

SetFile -a V (file/folder) Congratulations, you just saved ten dollars. Put your stuff in an encrypted disk image if you really think the bad guys are out to get you. |

Building a music player on the Mozilla platform is kind of like grafting an umbrella onto a dog's head. Sure, you could do it, but why? |

Only naive people pay the full $200 for BBEdit. All you have to do is "crossgrade" from the free TextWrangler (which itself is more than capable for most people) and your price is cut in half. Or if you're really cheap you can learn to use emacs, but why would anyone ever want to do a thing like that. |

Of course, theming is completely different under Intel versions of the OS. But let's not let that stop anyone from complaining. |

That command line is a huge waste of disk space for what will very likely be an imperceptible gain in quality. Try -V2 --vbr-new instead, since the latest version includes LAME 3.97 beta. See also hydrogenaudio.org for more information. |
