Wow, this hasn't gotten a review in a while. I suppose having control externally would be a good thing to have... several versions ago. And anyone complaining about not being able to play iTunes songs, I hope you don't ever perform with iTunes purchased songs. Even iTunes Plus songs are nowhere near the right quality to perform with. iTunes songs sound like crap coming out of big speakers. It's a very good thing iTunes songs don't work. |

Not my program, I can't fix it. But being a developer, I can tell just from the screenshot that that's one of the problems. I don't know what's "under the hood" as one might say. |

It's designed to look old, it's based of the original screensaver. |

It's because of the buttons, they're leopard only. |

Try iShowU! It's 9.95 cheaper, and has a million more features and way better framerates. |

Onyx isn't very good at cleaning actually. Aside from the wipeout, Onyx never really made it too obvious what it was cleaning. The browser cleaning tools leave something to be desired, and most other cleaning functions are just too generic to trust. |

Just going to clarify mechamania's sarcasm because it's really subtle and hard to understand. The world (most major companies and the porn industry) has decided that BluRay will be the official and recommended HD media. HD-DVD will soon die like the BetaMax did. |

I support independent developers, hell I am one. But $30 for this, and it's not so pretty interface isn't really worth it. There are tons of apps out there that aren't worth their asking price, DRM Dumpster isn't the only one. |

Xslimmer is amazing. The constantly updated blacklist of applications that blow up if slimmed adds so much to the value of Xslimmer. I wouldn't trust anything else to slim my computer. 87% of statistics are made up, so I don't trust anyone who's said "x% speed increase!" but I do know that Xslimmer has saved me many gigabytes which is essential on my iBook's 60GB hard drive. |

FileStorm is great! It has never failed me! MindVision support is always on top of trying to help you, and the program makes disk images professional. Just drag and drop your files in, and move them where you want them. It really couldn't be easier! I use it to package all of my software, and it's really bumped up the way people look at my software! |

Wow, that has to be the dumbest statement anyone could have ever said. It's not real money, it's real ink. You can't just print off money, bring it to your local office supplies store and expect them to take it, because it's fake. |

No offense, but I'm not sure it's worth a donation. Anyone can make an Automator application, and seeing as this person made four yet keeps them separate I'm guessing they're not much of a real code-based developer. |

Why not bundle all of your batch Autmator apps into one bundle? Maybe call it Batch'em or something. |

Don't use that, Application Enhancer (another Unsanity tool that Clear Dock relies on) kills Leopard. So it won't work, and when you reboot you'll see a blue screen of apple death, which is ironicly sad. It doesn't say anything, it's just the screen before the login window, it gets stuck there and stops. Then you have to do some magical trickery to uninstall it. So, just a sum up, you can't use that, it kills Leopard. |

The game quickly gets very old. After less than several shots, you are able to determine the timing based on the rotation of the spinner exactly when to let the ball go and know exactly where it will stop. Every time. There is no variation in the game. I commend it's followabillity though. I have a tough time following the ball around the Little Wing boards, I can't tell exactly why though (which is driving me insane). This mini-game is certainly not worth $9.95, but I would consider purchasing if the board was a wee bit more complicated. Guarenteed sale if the board becomes more constructed, and this appears either on Promo or ZOT. |

If you're into app switching a lot, try Apple-Tab. Trampoline is a great app launcher, but I find Apple-Tab works a lot better for switching through already open apps. |

Aie, everyone's always mad at the people who make shareware. They think that just because it has a price tag, it's the wrong way to go. CosmoPod looks like a really good idea, and is well worth the small asking price. |

Roger, keep in mind it's not a force-empty-trash, and that if the folders were locked or in-use that MacDust would not have deleted them. |

@logfla Look at the screenshot for starters - neither Onyx nor Cocktail do any of that... Then there's the torrent apps cleaning Also the more controlled browser cleaning. MacDust isn't perfect, and there's always more to add, so I'd love to hear suggestions! |

DRAD, that's a very good idea, I'll see if I can add that! Dave, you haven't even tried MacDust (it's not even on your recently downloaded apps, you haven't even looked into giving it a shot!), you can't say that you know everything it does! MacDust does many things it's free, and even it's shareware competitors can't! |

Actually, that's a very bad way to do it. 1) some people don't have a mighty mouse 2) that adds extra files that a windows computer _will_ see and it doesn't look too professional. I personally enjoy CocoaZip. |

I can't believe how dumb some people really are. Reading other reviews from versions PRIOR TO 1.0! and then writing their own WITHOUT trying the software? You can't even download the versions that did that anymore! And it's not /Library/Receipts for the last time, it _was_ ~/Library/Receipts which is in fact, perfectly safe to remove. I can almost guarantee I've been using Mac longer than you, MacGurl so please don't question my knowledge of how things work. |

I have listened to the people. More than one user (I have no idea what they were thinking) told me that they don't trust freeware to clean their computer. Five dollars is all I ask, it isn't much, I don't see why people are making such a big deal over it. Many people have told me that it's quite the deal for the level of support and the constant (free) updates. |

MacDust does not do system maintainance cleaning by running the scripts included with Mac OS X by apple. MacDust cleans specific applications in a specialized way. MacDust is not, and should not be used for system maintainance. MacDust is designed for cleaning up after specific applications. |

No, it can't. MacDust does it's own little thing, any other application listed may do some kind of cleaning, but MacDust is specialized for certian applications. |

MacDust will never delete anything from the computer that a normal user will not have access to. It will only delete receipts in your local user ~/Library/Reciepts folder. Which most of the time, for lack of a better word, is filled with crap. I do agree, /Library/Recipets should not be emptied. |
