MACSTERDAM  How do Yep and Leap handle opening and closing the quicklook window? Those two seem to work just fine when using the spacebar! Do have a look please.  
(Version 1.3)

MACSTERDAM  The idea behind Liquid Browsing is truly revolutionary, just have a look at the various videos on the LiquiFile website. Comparing the the current version of LiquiFile to those videos, you’ll may think the current version of the application is somewhat basic, but looks are deceiving. This is indeed a very welcome addition to the Finder, which currently does none of the things in which LiquiFile excels, such as no-linear file selection on various criteria, quick overview of the contacts of all nested-folders etc. It takes some time to ‘see’ the idea behind Liquid Browsing, but when you do see it, you’ll wonder why this wasn’t done before.

That said, and while this release is a very welcome update, I can’t wait to see more of the exciting features implemented, as seen in the Liquid Browsing videos. Oh, and how about a version of LiquiFile for iPhone? :-D  
(Version 1.7)

MACSTERDAM  even though the title of the site mentions 1.6, the file available for download is still 1.51.   
(Version 1.5.1)

MACSTERDAM  I know how OS X handles it memory, and normally ram use shouldn't be a problem as inactive memory is supposed to be released when need. I find, however, that's not nearly always the case. I have 4GB of ram in my machine, but still I run out of memory more often than I'd like, so I'm careful on which utilities I use and which I don't.

Fresh looks very nice indeed and shows a lot of promise, so I will keep an eye on it (I already use both Leap and Yep - big fan of both btw), but if Fresh continues tio use a lot of ram, I'll give it a miss.   
(Version 1.1)

MACSTERDAM  a very useful and nice-looking gui-version of recent documents/favourites. the one thing that bothers me, though, is the amount of ram it uses. after about an hour it already took up some 50mb, which I think is too much for something like this. I have plenty of ram in my mac, but I also run a lot of software, so I'd like see smaller utilities keep ram-use to a minimum. I feel software like this should stay well under 25mb ram use.

with regards to tagging, again, very nice, but I'd like to see a shortcut to add tags, instead of having to drag the file to a drawer.

still, v1.0 is off to a fresh start (pardon the pun) - will keep an eye on this.  
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  I’m a FontAgent Pro user, but I’ve always had a serious interest in FEX because of it’s appealing user interface. Having tried the various versions up to and including 1.2.3 and now this 2.0 paid upgrade, I’m sorry to say I find it’s still no match for FAP. After having deinstalled FAP, cleaned font caches and such, I still find that with a lot of fonts installed, FEX is much slower than FAP and has problems with a number of fonts which both FAP and FontDocter think are ok.

The interface of this 2.0 release is once again very nice and it makes FEX a pleasure to work with. Unfortunately the same can’t be said for the way it handles fonts, which is a darn shame. So, for the money, I’m better off with FAP. I guess FEX is just not me.

It will be interesting to see how well FontCase develops (the latest beta is already quite nice (with a stunningly beautiful interface I must ad)) and how it will compare to FEX and FAP.

So three stars it is (when comparing to FAP). FEX got some nice features, it's easy to use, but lacks in the other areas. Nevertheless, compliments to Linotype for it's ongoing development of FEX  
(Version 2.0)

MACSTERDAM  'bloody outstanding' doesn't do this updates justice :-D The best IMHO just got a lot better. Quicksilver may be nicer looking, but this is much much much faster, just as versatile, way more stable and use a lot less memory. I'm lost without it! Thank you for this update - especially love the new quicklook integration!!!  
(Version 5.0b1)

MACSTERDAM  I've given this another try, and fair's fair, it's working flawlessly now! Absolutely wonderful. Plugins I currently use with PlugSuit are: SafariStand, MegaZoomer, Stumbi, Leech and WebSnapper.

To be completely honest, I do feel PlugSuit is not as "snappy" as Simbl, but to be completely syre of this, I'll need to test PlugSuit for a longer period of time.  
(Version 1.5.6)

MACSTERDAM  I can't believe this is free. For me, Bean has replaced Word and TextEdit for about 95% of the writing I do. Best feature for me is how it handles full-screen writing.

Thanks very much!!  
(Version 1.3.3)

MACSTERDAM  does indeed work really great. thank you very much!  
(Version 1.2)

MACSTERDAM  I like the look of this, but the current release is missing a number of things. Hopefully this is still in active development as it hasn't been updated a fair while!  
(Version b262)

MACSTERDAM  It looks fantastic, works great, but uses an insane amount of memory. A real shame, because this is how a Mac clipboard should look!

Fix the memory problem (keep it below 25-30mb) and I'll buy it.  
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  I really feel this should come standard with every Mac. Absolutely wonderful & very powerful, all at an unbelievably price.

10 stars in my book!  
(Version 1.5)

MACSTERDAM  another big fan here. both photon and the response time of the developer are bloody fast. initially the program may look somewhat expensive, until you've used it a couple of times and find that it saves you a lot of time.

there's always room for improvement, of course. in my case I'd love to see batch renaming options when exporting, to name but one of my feature-requests. I wouldn't be surprised if this was added any time soon ;-)  
(Version 1.1.4)

MACSTERDAM  This is absolutely fantastic - thanks a million! Great interface too.   
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  I should have been more specific. yes, you can re-order login items, but you can only move them to the bottom of the list. Not very convenient at all.

Although true that login items launch many at a time, having a particular items launch first can be very useful!

fyi - I use macpilot to sort my login items. much more convenient.   
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  I have, and in Leopard that's simply not possible!  
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  should it really? If you want 2 panes, there are plenty of other applications that provide that option. Flow has chosen not to offer more of the same - I applaud them for that.  
(Version 1.0.3.1)

MACSTERDAM  that's probably because evernote took their 'inspiration' from a proper mac application. just take a look at Yep. It's not hard to see evernote looks a lot like Yep.  
(Version 1.1.2)

MACSTERDAM  This application is nothing short of amazing. It's somewhat hard to describe what it can do as it's so versatile: It can be a system maintenance tool, automate and insert text-snippets, trigger any automator/applescript file you want, launch applications (single or multiple), launch terminal shell scripts. It's absolutely wonderful!!!! It's made automator a lot more useful for me than before.

Seriously underrated!

Oh, and last but not least: great developer support!!  
(Version 2.0.1)

MACSTERDAM  Only just installed it and have to say that so far it looks and works absolutely wonderful. Thanks very much!  
(Version 1.0b1)

MACSTERDAM  which the developer's site would have a list as to which simbl plugin works with this and which doesn't.

Just gave this another go, only to find 1password doesn't work. wasted a lot of time there.  
(Version 1.5.5)

MACSTERDAM  It's been a while since this was updated - is it still under active development at all?  
(Version 2.6.3)

MACSTERDAM  Have been using EagleFile intensively for about a year now, after switching from DevonThink Pro, which I'd used for years prior to EF. I'm really glad I made the switch. At present DTP be still be a wee bit smarter than EF when it comes to search, but that's the only advantage it currently has. EF has a much lower memory footprint, better OS integration, feels and looks more like an OS X application and doesn't store its documents in some database file. Plus, capturing webarchives in the background is much much faster

So, for now, hands down winner.  
(Version 1.3.2)

MACSTERDAM  based on the screenshot I thought this was somewhat boring. Turns out it's not - instead it's beautifully simple and elegant. thanks very much!  
(Version 1.01)

MACSTERDAM  The best just got better! Should be on every designer's Mac!!  
(Version 1.2)

MACSTERDAM  I started using TimeMachine only just recently, in addition to Smart Backup. It annoyed me that I had so little control over it. This application solves a lot of those nuisances. It's simple, does what it claims to do, just brilliant: a well deserved 5 stars. Thanks very much!!  
(Version 1.3)

MACSTERDAM  It's back!!! Thanks very much!  
(Version 1.7.3)

MACSTERDAM  Being a big fan of Isolator, I was wondering if you might consider the following: currently the new betas allow you to either hide all but the forefront window or dim all but the forefront window. As I love both options, I'd really love to see you ad a shortcut for both, so I can choose either depending on what I need.  
(Version 1.5b3)

MACSTERDAM  gave the new version a try - after browsing just a few sites, OW was up to 200MB ram in no time.

One word for that: ridiculous!  
(Version 5.7 beta 1)

MACSTERDAM  to switch back to OW, I'd need the following: find-as-you-type & less ram use. A more up to date interface wouldn't hurt either (think Shiira!).

I still think it's a great browser, well worth the money, but without the requested features I don't see myself using it any longer.  
(Version 5.7 beta 1)

MACSTERDAM  I realy like Finderpop, but Unsanity's Ape would definitely be a reason to uninstall this.   
(Version 2.1.2)

MACSTERDAM  Oh Yes!!!!! 1.4b8 is the new FocusLayer!!!!!! I seriously can't thank you enough. Absolutely wonderful and as of now my number one essential utility on my Mac.

As far as I'm concerned, this deserves 10 stars!!!  
(Version 1.4b8)

MACSTERDAM  what an absolutely wonderful program this has become. it's very very good, as well as very very fast, especially when doing smart updates. seriously recommended. also noteworthy is how response the developer is - offer really great service!  
(Version 2.2)

MACSTERDAM  I've been a FAP user since V1, and true, FAP 1 was so slow as to be unusable. FAP2 was marginally better, speed-wise that is. Version 3, however, really shone, and I found to be faster than other, including LFE. V4 is once again faster.

True, FAP is catching up with LFE when it comes to features, but as nice as LFE is, when it comes to font handling, including (auto)activation, FAP is still the most reliable of all and still ahead of LFE at detecting font problems.

As soon as LFE fixes these I'd switch in a heartbeat, because it's got the best gui, but until then I'm more than willing to pay an upgrade fee for FAP V4.  
(Version 4.0)

MACSTERDAM  I agree that Linotype's FE is the hands down winner when it comes to interface, however, FAP has way better font handling and auto-activation. A lot of fonts that preview perfectly well in FAP, don't preview in FE at all unfortunately.  
(Version 4.0)

MACSTERDAM  The new version installs and runs just fine, and it recognized my old 3.3 settings immediately.

I have to say I love the new features, and speed-wise this is once again faster than the previous version. For me the best just got better and is still way-ahead of the competition.

Now, if only I could buy an upgrade license, as the store doesn't mention V4 yet.  
(Version 4.0)

MACSTERDAM  I have been using this for several weeks now, and even though it's not feature complete yet, Things is easily GTD-like program out there. It's become an essential part of my daily workflow. Sure, I'd love to have integration with iCal etc, but I can wait, Things already does what most essential for: keeping on top of all stuff that's needs to be done.

Seriously recommended! (btw - the 5 star rating is because Things does exactly what it promises right now!!)  
(Version 0.8.6)

MACSTERDAM  Sorry to read about the previous commenters' problems. I have had no such issues and can only say I really love the software. It runs great, have had my questions answered by the developer very quickly and am very pleased with the software. There's room for improvement, but even with the current features I think it's really good.  
(Version 2.0b7)

MACSTERDAM  Knox is one of the very few essential programs for me. I'm on a macbook pro and have various pieces of info stored on encrypted diskimages. Sure, I do do this by just using disk utility, but knox makes managing disk images so much easier, it's well worth the small fee.

Seriously excellent!!  
(Version 1.5.3)

MACSTERDAM  It would be most most welcome is you (Insider people) were to post some sort of announcement on your site regarding Leopard support and when we can expect an update. I've been using FAP ever since V1, and have been a happy user since V2, however, informing their users of upcoming updates has never been Insiders strong point unfortunately. A shame really, as the product is outstanding!  
(Version 3.3.2)

MACSTERDAM  what a fantastic update! Much much faster and love the new quicklook feature. Stunning!  
(Version 1.0b5)

MACSTERDAM  Featurewise Omniweb is still in a league of its own. Sure, FireFox can do a lot of what Omniweb can, but you'd need a boatload of extensions. Nevertheless, I'm currently not using Omniweb, but Camino. That is because webkit-based browsers (like Safari and OmniWeb) gobble up ram like there's no tomorrow. I could use Camino all day long and rarely it uses more than + 80mb ram. Try and do the same with OmniWeb (or Safari) - you'd easily be looking at + 200 - 300 mb ram use. Plain ridiculous, but not Omni's fault. Here's hoping the problem gets fixed in Leopard's webkit, so I can return to my favourite browser again.  
(Version 5.6)

MACSTERDAM  wonderful software - use it all the time. I think this is easily the best software to sync bookmarks across browsers. Great product at a more than reasonable price!   
(Version 3.7.3)

MACSTERDAM  I'm already a Yep user, so I'm biased ;-). Just want to say this looks very, very promising. This feels like Yep en (Leopards) Finder have fused into one new powerful program. Looks really really great!  
(Version 1.0b4)

MACSTERDAM  I really love the way this application works. It has a great balance between look and workflow. For me, however, it has two shortcommings, which render is useless for me (for now that is!)

1) it use an insane amount of ram if you use and leave it open for a long time.

2) it still can't capture or import webarchives.

Other than that, it's really nice and has a very useful feature-set.  
(Version 1.5.8)

MACSTERDAM  Fantastic news this!! Absolutely wonderful!!! Look forward to using this in Leopard.  
(Version 0.1)

MACSTERDAM  another huge fan here. sorry the company is no longer in business. should any of the original developers read this: firstly, I hope you've on to do other fun stuff. secondly, any chance of releasing the source-code? workstrip is to wonderful to let is disappear.  
(Version 3.2.3)

MACSTERDAM  any beta news to share? :-)  
(Version 1.6.6)

MACSTERDAM  indeed, does exactly what it says. Thank you very much!  
(Version 2.0)

MACSTERDAM  they're on a roll here!!! Brilliant - thanks very much!  
(Version 4.3.2)

MACSTERDAM  Indeed, QuickSilver may have (a few) more features, but only if you painstakingly search for, figure out and download the relevant plugins. Launchbar does everything 'out of the box'. Not only that, it does it faster, much much faster. Great update, thank you!

It may not be free (the best things in life rarely are), but it's well worth the money!  
(Version 4.3)

MACSTERDAM  sadly, no reviews here just yet. Which is a shame because this is getting better and better with each release. Flux offers a new take on building websites. Visually this application looks stunning. Fortunately I also find it a please to use. Not quite there yet, but getting very close. I'll keep my eye on this one.   
(Version 1.0.10)

MACSTERDAM  Strangely enough there are no review here, which is weird, as this is an amazing piece of software. Great feature, easy to use, and (hey, I'm a Mac user) cool looking. Anyone even remotely interested in music/audio, give this a try. Wasting your time is hardly ever this much fun. Seriously recommended!  
(Version 0.80b)

MACSTERDAM  that's not what happens here - I'd say, mail the developer. Oh, btw, I'm using the latest flash as well.  
(Version 3.0a2)

MACSTERDAM  do you select the files while holding the 'command' key? (silly question perhaps, but just checking!)  
(Version 3.0a2)

MACSTERDAM  the latest beta - 3.02  
(Version 3.0a2)

MACSTERDAM  want you to know it works great here.  
(Version 3.0a2)

MACSTERDAM  absolutely fantabulous!! Glad to see flv download is back - brilliant!  
(Version 3.0a2)

MACSTERDAM  Seriously underrated, I think, and should be part of iLife. I use it all the time and feel 5 stars doesn't do it justice - it really is that good. So here, another 5 stars, both for the developer and the software!  
(Version 1.1.2)

MACSTERDAM  It works as advertised. Nothing wrong there. Wish it wouldn't depend on Unsanity's Aplication Enhancer. A reason for me not to buy this.   
(Version 2.6)

MACSTERDAM  An amazing developer with some really outstanding interface ideas. Not ready for prime time yet, but extremely promising. Thank you very much for al your hard work!  
(Version 2.1)

MACSTERDAM  I've had this for year and it's always worked as advertised. Outstanding support too. Seriously recommended!  
(Version 1.71)

MACSTERDAM  Nothing short of amazing! 10 stars!!!!!  
(Version 1.1)

MACSTERDAM  Nothing short of amazing. This tools has become an essential part of my workflow. I'm lost if it;s not on a Mac. Great tool, excellent developer too.   
(Version 1.1)

MACSTERDAM  That's great news - I'll be keeping an eye on Scrivener, that's for sure!!!  
(Version 1.03)

MACSTERDAM  Fantastic news - thanks you very much!!  
(Version 0.2.2b)

MACSTERDAM  Unfortunately it is - but thank you very much for all your effort and suggestions. Much appreciated!!  
(Version 1.03)

MACSTERDAM  Problems with that solution is that the original source url doesn't get imported, or does it?   
(Version 1.03)

MACSTERDAM  Thanks for the reply.

What I'm looking for is the possibility to capture webarchives either via a user-definable hot-ket (services menu?) or via a bookmarklet. I am familiar with the options you mentioned, but as I do research and save a lot of information form the web, the methods currently available won't do (as in, take too much time!)  
(Version 1.03)

MACSTERDAM  Very impressive indeed, and close near perfection. Just missing one thing: captures web archives. Give me that, and you've got another customer :D  
(Version 1.02)

MACSTERDAM  'Like' is quite an understatement!! Uno makes the OS X interface way more elegant! You, Sir, deserve a medal, both for Uno and for not making it a GuiKit!!!!  
(Version 1.5)

MACSTERDAM  Absolutely fantabulous and nothing short of amazing! Thank you, thank you, thank you!  
(Version 1.5)

MACSTERDAM  spirited away is now available for intel as well!   
(Version 1.0b3)

MACSTERDAM  I need to quote this as I totally agree: "

My biggest comment is "unbridled support anytime I need it. Always very professional and courteous."

Outstanding software that just works, and works great too.   
(Version 2.1.4)

MACSTERDAM  Not only is this fantastic software, but the developer is very, very responsive as well. This alone is a serious plus in my book.

As for the software, it work great, nice features and (for me) well worth the price. Yes, there are alternatives, but none with the feature-set of desktopple pro.  
(Version 1.2)

MACSTERDAM  Eventhough this is only a 0.2.3b release, this is already a wonderful application, and one that shows a lot of promise! Use it all the time.  
(Version 0.2.3b)

MACSTERDAM  A very promising 1.0 release. Here's hoping it'll be the new FocusLayer soon.   
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  Thanks a lot for the tips. I bought and use Moru, but had forgotten all about SpotMeta. I will give it a go.

Thing I like about Mailtags is that it not only tags files but also moves them to the relevant folders.   
(Version 2.0b6)

MACSTERDAM  Mailtags has changed how I handle and archive my mail. What a great application this is. Simple yet extremely powerful. Seriously recommended. Thanks

Now, if only someone would write FinderTags :-D (hint!)  
(Version 2.0b6)

MACSTERDAM  Oh, but I do believe it's save, safety's not the problem, speed is!

I have been a registered user of various Unsanity applications for some time now. However, shortly before switching from a dual G5 to a Macbook Pro, I removed all haxies from my G5, and found the GUI to respond much faster.

I did try the new APE and Slider on my Macbook yesterday, and found that APE still effects the responsiveness of the GUI negatively. That's why I don't like APE anymore.  
(Version 1.3)

MACSTERDAM  I like this a lot, but wish it could run independently of APE. Because of the latter I don't use it.  
(Version 1.3)

MACSTERDAM  For some reason this seems to fall in the category 'love it or hate it'. Even though I'm neither end of that spectrum, I like this program. It's no Toast, but it does what it needs to do, at least for my needs. Never had any problems with it so far, and although the GUI is somewhat different, I think it look nice (a resize option of the main window would be nice though!) Keep up the good work.  
(Version 1.0b5)

MACSTERDAM  I'm a long-time DevonThink Pro user who, because DTP lacks Spotlight integration, is looking for an alternative. I accidentally came across this and upon first trying this I was immediately impressed. As CA already mentioned, for a 1.0 release, this is brilliant, seriously brilliant in fact. And the developer is very, very responsive too.

Comparing NoteMind to DTP on just features, DTP wins hands down, easily too. However, judging NoteMind on usability and looks/interface, it's off to a flying start. It's a pleasure to use, and with just a few extra's, I can switch from DTP to NoteMind full-time. Judging by how the developer responds to feature-requests, I feel this shouldn't take long.

Excellent work, thank you!  
(Version 1.0.2)

MACSTERDAM  Seriously excellent and quite indispensable! This should be standard on all Macs!  
(Version 1.4.3)

MACSTERDAM  Once again thanks for the wonderful program that PDF view is and for the amazing speed with which you add features.  
(Version 0.11.6)

MACSTERDAM  Launchbar is indeed brilliant. I do wish the interface was updated though. On larger screen, Launchbar looks rather tiny. Otherwise still no complaint. It's fast (as in: very fast!!), smart, simple and stable. None of the competitors combine these features.  
(Version 4.1.1)

MACSTERDAM  Great program, I'm using it all the time!!! Thanks a lot!  
(Version 0.11.2)

MACSTERDAM  Wonderful application!! Great interface too. Thanks.  
(Version 1.0.6rc1)

MACSTERDAM  What's with all the hash criticism? Quite unnecessary I think. Uno is a stunningly beautiful theme. Also, it's for free and runs with the need for any of Unsanitie's Haxies. What more could you want? The developer is very open to suggestions as well, but if I were him I'd be severely peed off after reading the various comments here below.

To all those who complained, if there;s anything you don't like about Uno, just write the developer and ask for changes nicely.

Another 5 stars from me - I'd hate to use Tiger without Uno!  
(Version 1.3.2)

MACSTERDAM  You can use this to run applications without dockicons: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/12516

I use it on my Macbook Pro and it runs great.  
(Version 2.0.3)

MACSTERDAM  Instant Brian Eno - really really cool. Export to iTunes would be neat.  
(Version 1.1)

MACSTERDAM  Two words: Absolutely brilliant. It makes using Wikipedia not only much more fun, but also way more useful. Thanks! Looking forward to updates  
(Version 0.5)

MACSTERDAM  Very promising start this. Work absolutely wonderful, and has already got a place in my dock. I look forward to updates!   
(Version 0.2.8)

MACSTERDAM  Absolutely gorgeous, and much much nicer than the standard Apple version! Thanks a lot.  
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  A very elegant copy of the Windows Taskbar and very useful too. A little short on features at the moment, fairly stable and it show a lot of promise. Keep up the good work.  
(Version b262)

MACSTERDAM  This really shows a lot of promise I think. It allows you to focus on the forefront application but dimming the the other applications. I really love this idea and would love to see the feature set, which is somewhat limited at the moment, be expended. Great idea, I look forward to updates.  
(Version 1.0.1)

MACSTERDAM  Despite all the raving reviews and despite the fact that this is a great application it still can't match Font Agent Pro's Font Checking and Auto Activation capabilities. I'm an absolute font fanatic with loads of fonts and I find that FAP still handles fonts slightly better.

I will follow the development of this and try new(er) version as it shows a lot of promise, but for me, it's not quite there yet. So, back to FAP.  
(Version 1.1)

MACSTERDAM  Installed this a couple of hours ago, imported all my fonts and was up and running in no time. I had been using FontExplorer on my Macbook because I found FAP to run to slow under Rossetta. What can I say. Extremely happy to be able to switch back to a native FAP (fontexplorer is not my cup of tea!). 3.3 is flawless, as ever, very, very fast. The best font manager on the planet, in my book anyways.

To those who have tried FAP before v3, give it another go, you be pleasantly surprised. The one flaw it had then, speed (as in slow) has long been solved and it's font-checking features have only gotten better.

You guessed it, I'm a fan.  
(Version 3.3)

MACSTERDAM  Maybe not the most stable of browsers, but then, it's only beta. If you want stable, download the 1.2.2 release.

The new GUI and features in this 2.0 release, however, are something else. Very, very impressive indeed. Love the new shelf, tabs and full-screen mode. Can't wait for the final release. Hats off for the developer of this!  
(Version 2.0b1)

MACSTERDAM  I suggest you read this: http://macintalk.com/index.php?id=136  
(Version 5.5b2)

MACSTERDAM  Been using this for a long time now and it just gets better and better. Great program, great support. 5 stars doesn't do it justice :D  
(Version 4.0)

MACSTERDAM  Thanks for updating it! Much appreciated.   
(Version 1.5.5)

MACSTERDAM  YES, UB at last!!!!! Thank you!!! I've tried other (who shall remain unnamed) but for me this is the best. Great set of tools, great interface and most amazingly of all, it's still free.

Thank you very much!  
(Version 1.5.5)

MACSTERDAM  Great feature set and some well-cool ideas!! Not to sure about the darkish interface. A built-in iTunes theme would be most welcome.

Excellent start - will keep an eye on this!  
(Version 0.2)

MACSTERDAM  This looks very promising indeed. I do have a few wishes though:

1) A preference setting that allows me to show more than 3 previews in the floating preview window (have a look at F10 launch studio or Exposé even!)

2) Allow setting the thumbnail size of the floating preview window.

3) More preview file-support (f.i. bmp etc)

Otherwise no complaints. Personally I think $14 is fair enough, but $ 9.99 my have a more positive psychological effect on potential buyers.

Keep up the good work.  
(Version 2.0)

MACSTERDAM  It looks nice, but..... it doesn't work properly yet. I expect this to find stuff by typing just the first few letter of an application, so, When looking for, say, Logic, or Rax, I type "log' and 'Ra'. Does it come up with application suggestions, sure, but the right ones? Nope.

Like others have said, Namely is free, so are the way more versatile Butler and Quicksilver. And if you want something versatile and really really fast, go fo Launchbar (like I did). The latter isn't free but well worth the money, me thinks.

Still, this looks nice, but $15 ins indeed a tad expensive for what it does. Back to the drawing board I suppose.  
(Version 1.1)

MACSTERDAM  This has worked perfectly so far. I was wondering if there will be a Universal Binary soon?  
(Version 0.2.1)

MACSTERDAM  Still much much faster than all the others and enough 'bell & whistles' to allow me to do what I want. Still, some developer feedback on when we can expect an enhanced interface would be very nice indeed.  
(Version 4.1.1)

MACSTERDAM  Excellent - Never new Spotlight didn't index text clippings (which I use a lot btw). Thanks a lot!!  
(Version 1.01)

MACSTERDAM  Excellent and very very useful too. Thanks!  
(Version 0.7b)

MACSTERDAM  especially combined with this:

(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  Very very nice this. Simple, powerful and elegant. Would love to see previews of pictures in future releases and a somewhat lower memory footprint, but otherwise just great!! Thumbs up!!  
(Version 0.54)

MACSTERDAM  How about fixing Quicktime export files that Windows computers can play? A fix that's way overdue.  
(Version 3.0.1)

MACSTERDAM  Nothing short of amazing. Blindingly fast and totally unobtrusive. One wish only: a somewhat larger interface with more preview options.

Other option may be free, but this is still the fastest and smartest. Well, in my book it is :D  
(Version 4.1)

MACSTERDAM  Excellent! Works great here. Very useful to have. Thanks!!  
(Version 0.3)

MACSTERDAM  Yep - I saw that. Fortunately for me I'm not experiencing those problems. If you are, that's bad and I hope they'll get solved soon. I for one would not like to go back a FW pre-4.x.   
(Version 4.1.2)

MACSTERDAM  Very sorry to hear that. I, however, am not experiencing problems. I'm sure it you write Softpress, they have answers to your questions/complaints. Hope they can help you out!  
(Version 4.1.2)

MACSTERDAM  Gave this another try because I like the interface and speed of it. However, auto-activation still not as good as FontAgent Pro. For instance, when launching an iWork document, FAP automatically loads all fonts but LFE does not. Also, when importing, I find FAP checks fonts much better for errrors than LFE does. It's a great program, compliments to the programmers, but not quite there yet for my needs. Back to FontAgent Pro for me.  
(Version 1.0.1)

MACSTERDAM  Another great update. Absolutely flawless. If you want a true WYSIWYG webdesign program, this is the one to get. Webdesign the Mac way. Fantastic support too!  
(Version 4.1.2)

MACSTERDAM  True, I agree, but what I mean was, in what is your way of changing network settings different (superior?) to the way Cocktail does it? Aren't you both using the same proctocol?   
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  How's this different from what's built into Cocktail? (Serious question/no slagging)  
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  I have an insane amount of fonts. When importing in FontAgent, it checks the font at bit level to filter out faulty ones. After that I never have any problems and auto-activation is very fast. When trying LFE, I found it did import faulty fonts plus when using Safari, some text on some pages looks scrambled. Never happens with FAP. Still, LFE is one amazing program, but for, not quite as good as FAP yet. I find the latter well worth the money. But I'm glad LFE is out, because competition is good !!!  
(Version 1.0.1)

MACSTERDAM  Without a doubt, LFE is very good, but the best? I'd argue with that. FontAgent Pro still has better auto-activation and better fon-import handling.   
(Version 1.0.1)

MACSTERDAM  Very good indeed, much better than most other font manager, except one: FontAgent Pro. I find FontExplorer to be a little bit faster, has a more pleasant UI, but FontAgent has better font activation and it's import/font check function are way better. So for now, FontAgent still wins.   
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  I don't understand some of the negativity here. I've been a registered user for some time and never had any problems with this program nor with the developer. I've written him on a couple of occasions and always got a reply. As for version 128.3, I love the new interface. For me, the best just got better.   
(Version 128.3)

MACSTERDAM  I must add that this program has the potential to replace the Finder for most of the things you do. It's nothing short of amazing! Great developer support as well.  
(Version 1.3)

MACSTERDAM  Absolutely fantastic. Have used this for years and never a simgle problem The new look is even better. Thanks!  
(Version 128.3)

MACSTERDAM  absolutely amazing. This should really be intergrated into the Finder. Fast, powerful and cheap. Well worth checking out. One wish, I'd love to see thumbnail previews!  
(Version 1.3)

MACSTERDAM  One of the most underrated audio/midi programs on the Mac. I'm a Logic user myself, but if I wasn't, I'd probably use this because it reminds me of Opcode Studio Videion. Very nice and very powerful, not to mention cheap. Nice to se it still being developped.   
(Version 6.3.5)

MACSTERDAM  Excellent little utility - thank you very much!  
(Version 0.4.1)

MACSTERDAM  Very nice, but I'd like to point out that Lotsawater is free and IMHO looks nicer.  
(Version 1.0.5)

MACSTERDAM  Sorry to read about what happened in the past. Not the kind of publicity a developer would like. Still, I just downloaded and tried PiquantMenu and have to say I like it a lot. For me it works as advertised, looks great and very useful indeed (at least, for my needs). Could do without the dock icon though.  
(Version 2.5.1)

(Version 2.5.1)

MACSTERDAM  Excellent tip, thanks very much!!  
(Version 10.0.0.352)

MACSTERDAM  Much much faster indeed. The best just got better, thank you very much indeed.   
(Version 3.1)

MACSTERDAM  I love the lack of interface too and would just like a theme that mimics the black transparant look of the new Apple (pro) applications, like Motion/Aperture etc.

Otherwise, no wishes :-D  
(Version 4.1b3)

MACSTERDAM  Runs much much faster than previous versions and the tabs are brilliant. It may not be for everyone, but there's a lot to like here. Excellent work.  
(Version 4.0.1)

MACSTERDAM  Outstanding program and outstanding support. Nothing but praise for this. Great application, thank you!!  
(Version 3.7)

MACSTERDAM  Yes, Quicksilver is without a doubt nothing short of amazing! But please, fix it's speed. Just try Launchbar for a minute and then switch back to Quicksilver. It's like trading in a Ferrari for a bicycle. Other than that, no complaints!  
(Version 1.0b48)

MACSTERDAM  Unbelievably fast - made me renew my license. Totally agree with everything Macbeth said as well. One serious wish: An interface similar to QS Bezel!!   
(Version 4.1b3)

MACSTERDAM  Works great with 10.4.4 too - brilliant!!!  
(Version 1.7)

MACSTERDAM  Absolutely wonderful, this is how OSX should really look. Sheer elegance. As ever, this installed without as hitch. I'm extremely grateful for this. Thank you VERY much!  
(Version 1.7)

MACSTERDAM  to SEMIOTICMONKEY:

I agree, the price is a bit steep, but those other two plugins are not as elegant as this, I find anyway. And true, this may not be entirely new, functionality-wise, the way it does it feel very, very Mac-like! I like it!  
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  Holy moly - how cool is this. Amazing, cool looking and very useful. Price is a little steep but (probably) worth it!!!!  
(Version 1.0)

MACSTERDAM  Nothing short of amazing!!! Thank you!  
(Version 1.4.2)

MACSTERDAM  I'm a registered user of Newsfire but as of release 2017 I've switched to Vienna. It's faster, has more features and feel great. Plus, the developer is very responsive which is nice as well. Absolutely wonderful. The fact that's it's (still) free is amazing as well.  
(Version 2.0.0.2019)

MACSTERDAM  Not to knock this, no reason because it works great and is free, but those looking for something similar might want to check out Quicksilver. Does something similar plus a whole lot more and is free as well!!  
(Version 2.0)

MACSTERDAM  This is an outstanding little program, with amazing features. However, I switched back to Launchbar because of speed issues. QS is waaaaay slower than Launchbar unfortunately, which is a shame as it beat Launchbar in any other area.

Still, if speed is not an issue, you should get this!  
(Version 1.0b46)

MACSTERDAM  Removed old version and installed this new version. Absolutely flawless and no problems whatsoever with my Graphire 4. Great update. Thanks!!  
(Version 4.94-5)

MACSTERDAM  I emailed Omni about the web-kit version of Omniweb and got a reply saying it will be ready around February 2006 or so. I'd rather have seen it sooner, but I can wait another three months if the end result is all we have now plus Safari's speed. It will then be the browser to beat!!!  
(Version 5.1.3 beta 2)

MACSTERDAM  I prefer Launchbar over Quicksilver in every but one way, namely, interface. I hope a future Launchbar update will have something similar to Quicksilver's 'Bezel' look.  
(Version 4.1b2)
