PSLIEBER  I'd love to...if it would show up as a volume. Grr.

To be frank, after an iTunes 7x update, the Shuffle simply went undetected going forward. This appears a common problem re: Apple Support Discussions.  
(Version 1.0.2)

PSLIEBER  Still a no-go (does not show up at all) on a 512MB, 1G shuffle w/ 1.0.2. This remains disappointing beyond words.

I'd give anything to have it simply SHOW UP as a device, on any OS.  
(Version 1.0.2)

PSLIEBER  Agreed. They updated the site to reflect fulfillment at the new ($5.95) price. Kudos for the head's up.  
(Version 2.0)

PSLIEBER  Way to make me eat crow. $20 for an upgrade to nothing-ness; ouch. Shame on you folks.  
(Version 2.0)

PSLIEBER  I WANT to love Opera...but I'm not sure why it still struggles with JavaScript, Flash, select plug-ins/embedded objects.

This has all the makings of being the Mac's best browser; it still hiccups on handling of essential formats.   
(Version 9.20)

PSLIEBER  Adobe finally re-established the download link for the stable version of Flash 8:

(Version 9.0.0.297)

PSLIEBER  Akin to most Mac users, I remain confounded at the absence of a single browser that can do everything well and consistently (handle javascripting, secure scripts, Flash, page formatting, block pop-ups, password management, scripting, speed, etc.).

I love the customization of Opera, compatibility of Safari, speed of Shiira, rendering of Firefox, robustness of Mozilla, no frills of iCab. I do not, however, enjoy the need to consistently have 2 browsers open to compensate for flaws inherent in each of these offerings.

While Camino is far from perfect, I keep finding it back in my dock as the default browser. Combined with CamiTools, 1.0.2 remains -- in my humble opinion -- arguably the most stable, reliable Mac browser on the market.

Yes, it does suffer from 'beach ball' purgatory on occasion, but a nice respite from the endless reading of Crash Reporter logs and wrongly formatted pages with corrupt roll-over menus.  
(Version 1.0.2)

PSLIEBER  What a wonderful, nifty little program that works as advertised. A must-have for visual-oriented folks who play their iTunes in the background. Good stuff.  
(Version 1.0.5)

PSLIEBER  What fun! All it needs is the insane wheel spinning of the 80's arcade game it resembles. :) An enjoyable time waster, well worth the download. I only wish the environments were more interactive (hazards, different surfaces, etc.).  
(Version 1.1.1)

PSLIEBER  Runs like a charm on my G4 iBook. (Perhaps the sluggishness is stemming from the Intel processing?)

I, for one, find this tool invaluable when used as a supplemental driving tool (to Google Maps). The ability to spot landmarks -- albeit some outdated --- opens up a whole new world of trip planning and/or learning a city's layout.

Looking forward to updates of this terrific software.  
(Version 3.1.0621.0)

PSLIEBER  Far more stable than their 'stable' version, a much better product than previous iterations. Truth be told, I [actually] abandoned my formerly favorite browser (I'm a paying, Opera customer from version 6) for a good 1.5 year's time due to its bugginess and random crashes. Not sure, however, about the functionality of the Widgets in 9. This is to be expected in a Pre-Release.

I'm tired of Safari crashing and the temperament of Camino. I likewise won't spring for OmniWeb. This seems to be THE browser to beat at the present.  
(Version 9.0pre2)

PAUL LIEBER  Solid, fast software that's a combination of all of the best features of the multitude of competing OS X browsers out there.

Further, Opera tech and customer support is legendary--they continue to build upon an already stellar reputation.

About pricing: Yes, a little expensive, but note that the license is also good for the version that follows it. Thus, your Opera license is likely good for year's worth of use.

Related, if you're reading these posts, odds are you've reaped the benefits of the shareware system that powers the OS X software market. The best of these are worth every penny, and that's coming from a poor graduate student to boot. :)  
(Version 7.51)

PAUL LIEBER  Simply put, this software doesn't work. The sync modules all hang, there's no uninstall option, and it's very buggy throughout. Ironically, the only thing is DOES do right is sync the Stickies, the lone function included in the demo.

Further, tech support is terrible. There is no phone based support, and the techs take weeks to answer emails. Worse, they don't seem to know what they're doing once they respond.

A lot of big claims are made on their web site about features, none of which actually work. Save your money--I took one for the team.

Perhaps they'll read this and actually update the software to a workable version. One can only hope.  
(Version 1.0)

PAUL LIEBER  Viva La Macaroni! Talk about an intelligent piece of software. Worth every penny and then some.  
(Version 2.0.3)

PAUL LIEBER  One of those applications that simply "gets it" in terms of design, functionality, and convenience. It took about 2 minutes of using this before I shot over a donation to the author. Not a single glitch in 10.3.3. I hope Peter continues to update this wonderful piece of software.

Y'know, it's software like this, Macaroni, GForce, etc., that make me love the shareware/donationware process.   
(Version 4.0b9)

PAUL LIEBER  I'm not exactly sure where the recent flood of unwarranted, negative and hostile reviews on GF (and other free programs on MU) are coming from.

For starters, FountainMusic IS a great plug-in, but is only one lone visual scheme. Thus, there is simply no comparison between the multitude of schemes in GF and FM's one. Also, the GF animations, IMHO, are commercial grade quality, and FREE.

I upgraded not out of a desire for more animations, rather as a way to support an excellent project. Freeware and shareware are simply that: a way to pilot test a product where the consumer decides whether it's worth its weight. This is one of those products.
