Unlike the first three reviews, I've had no problems running this game just as it is when it first starts up. I'm on an Intel Core Duo 2GHz iMac with 512 MB RAM, Radeon X1600 and running OS 10.4.11.

As to the game itself, I was initially going to complain that it was unsolvable. However, after looking at the screenshot provided here, I caught on to how it was possible to solve these puzzles.

I find the game addictive, maddening, and highly rewarding once you find the right configuration. It's a great game for anyone considering studying engineering or drafting, because it gives you a good idea of 3-D spatial analysis.

The only reason I don't give this a five rating is due to its being a first incarnation and everything can be improved upon.

Good job Holmes! And thanks for making it free!

The download link as it is now gives me a "Page not found" error.

If you read the release notes (click on the link above), you will see that this (9.0.115) is a BETA release. So, if you choose to install this, you are agreeing to the beta release terms and conditions.

It also tells you that you have to UNINSTALL any older versions before installing this release.

I've been using Phoenix 1.9.6 since I got my Intel iMac over a year and a half ago. But this "new" release says it's version 1.9.6 and the "What's New" lists the version as being 1.9.5.

What's up with all this? What version is this new release and IS it actually a new release? And while we're at it, is this really a PPC only release? Is there different one for Intel Macs?

Cool. I'll give it a shot under Rosetta and look forward to trying out the Universal sequel.

Any chance this may be updated to a Universal app instead of being PPC-only?

Sorry, that was my fault for not reading your instructions in the "menu" preferences. I hadn't realized the options could be rearranged. Thanks. It's an excellent application.

I forgot to add to my above comment that after checking out several of the menubar weather apps, I find this to be the best, with the most features. My suggested change is the only thing I'd like to see done differently.

If at all possible, I would like to see the upcoming forecasts' conditions and temperatures linked in the menubar. As it is now, when selected, you get the three conditions, then the three temps at the end.

For instance, right now it my upcoming forecasts read: "Flurries, Snow Shower, Snow Shower, 21, 31, 23"

I would prefer it to read: "Flurries, 21, Snow Shower, 31, Snow Shower, 23". Which I find to be much less confusing.

When I saw this listing for Onyx 1.7.8 I opened my Onyx 1.7.7 and ran the updater. It didn't pick up this newer version and said I was up to date.

I'll try again later, but by the time an update is posted here, one would think it would be available to the updater in the previous version.

While test driving SafariSpeed 2.0, I came across the following error message while attempting to change the Brushed Metal look in the Interface settings.

AppleScript Error

unzip: cannot find or open /Volumes/SafariSpeed/Volumes/SafariSpeed.zip or /Volumes/SafariSpeed.ZIP. (9)

Clicking on either button under Interface launched Safari, then gave me a dialog window to close Safari, followed by the above error message.

I had no problems with disabling the lag time. It made my Safari 2.0.4 incredibly faster than it had been.

For the record I'm on an Intel iMac running Tiger 10.4.8 and Safari 2.0.4

Depends on what Mac OS you are running. If you are using MAc OS 9.2.2 or lower, you cannot use what you've downloaded. The .dmg file extention is a disk image file (installer) that you can only open and run in Mac OS X. MS quit supporting Mac OS 9.2.2 (and lower) a long time ago.

Before getting my new Intel iMac, I was using this Mac Messenger instead of Micro$oft's own client because theirs always gave me problems like those described in other posts here.

Buried at the bottom of the Acceptance box "Read Me" it says to back up your iTunes before installing AguaT. I HIGHLY recommend it, as I had to trash my iTunes and reinstall it from scratch.

Actually, I would NOT recommend installing AguaT until the developer addresses this problem.

I just downloaded and installed AquaT 1.2.1 and when I re-opened iTunes, my store has been reset to the Japanese iTunes store. Not good, considering I'm in the US.
