GreaseKit	Sep 16 2009	LUMINOUS I still have to run Safari in 32-bit-mode to use GreaseKit. Since 1.6 it tells me after starting up Safari I should remove Creammonkey (which is not installed!) and to remove GreaseKit 1.2 what I did before installing 1.6. Strange! (Version 1.6)		0

QuickTime Player X Preference Pane	Sep 7 2009	LUMINOUS Well that's great! If you add the missing "A/V Controls" I would pay for your little prefpane-app! (Version 1.0)		0

CopySend Server	Jun 28 2009	LUMINOUS Does not work at all. Server is running, iPhone App too. After copying something on your iPhone/iPod you'll get a green light in the icon on your Mac, and that's really all. The iPhone App (0,79...) crashes some times and bred graphical errors. Copy or Paste from both, Mac or iPhone does not work like I said before. I tried it a hundred times. (Version 1.0)		0

OpenOffice.org	May 8 2009	LUMINOUS I'm delighted! It's fast, more features than MS Office, 100% compatible and platform independent! Well, I hoped that MS Office 2008 would finally work as it should, but that is just not a priority in Redmond. (Version 3.1)		+3

Postbox	Feb 22 2009	LUMINOUS Well, that's a great Mail app! Sometimes it strikes me that Apple Mail is "shaky". If you delete more than one Mail by clicking the button fast it seems like the mails are really deleted - but no, if the next email arrives you'll see the deleted mails are back... Thunderbird is a little too complex for my needs. Postbox has the power of Thunderbird and the beauty + the most features of Apple Mail. Perfect! (Version 1.0b7)		+2

THEBLUENOWHERE DOM21, MODEST GINGER gave a real answer. The Serpent-Twofish-AES cascade was right, it just takes a longer time than the individual parts. Hence the bring a sleeping bag reference, It was helpful.

fruux	Oct 7 2008	LUMINOUS They say it is a MobileMe alternative, it's definitively NOT. - No Interface for syncs (Not online and not in the PrefPane). - Are you sure about WHAT you really "sync" if you click that button? No! - "Logs" don't work... - Anything for iPhone? No! - Mail? No! - System integration? No! - Acceptable sharing? No! - Gallery? No! - "iDisk"? No! - 20GB storage they say, for iCal, Bookmarks and Address Book? Ha, ha, not funny! You would need 1 Billion Bookmarks/iCal- or Address Book-entries for (Version 0.8)		-21

ALGOS The people who develop Fruux don't mention anywhere this is an MobileMe alternative. So where did you get this info?

For me it has worked great, since I don't need the storage or an email address of MobileMe. If you need only the syncing of the things that Fruux does, it's absolutely awesome. It has worked fine for me and I am very happy with it.

Plus, it's developed totally free for us to use, so I find your rant here VERY rude. You should be thankful for free stuff, and if it doesn't fit your needs don't use it. If it doesn't work for you, that doesn't mean it won't work for others.

I'd love for this to work.. but when I try synching my computers I get this error message "Cannot deserialize response dicitonary: Conversion". Multimedia Converter for Mac Whatever that means, I tried reinstalling a few times, I can usually get one synch done then the subsequent ones give me the error. SO I am giving up on Fruux, too bad it seemed to be what I was looking for... DVD Movie Ripper for Mac As for all the other backup stuff (Sugarsync, Oakspider, Mozy etc....) are way more than I need so I guess I'll get it all done thru various little gizmos that let me use Google as a centralized base... though I find all this a little cumbersome... Video Format Converter for Mac beyond that no matter what one says.. MobileMe, which is too expensive for me at this point, is the only one that truly does things right and simple.
