Euro Converter Pro
Apr 16 2009
****.

THEBRYCEMAN  I love Euro Converter Pro and it is one of the few programs that runs all day on my Mac - I happily paid the shareware fee years ago. Apple's calculator is too clunky, and most other currency converters don't have the invaluable "QuicResults" feature for taxes etc. I sometimes use the Currency Converter widget as an alternative, but it doesn't have the drag-and-drop calculator features and QuickResults that I need. Having all the currencies and calculations at your finger tips is such a time saver.

For someone who travels regularly and does a lot of international transactions, Euro Converter Pro is fantastic. The 'PowerBook' keyboard feature is also useful as it helps when you don't have a numeric keypad on a small keyboard - although the latest MacBook Pros don't have the secondary numbers on their keyboards any more.

My only complaint is that the program is not Universal Binary, not a big issue as it is only a small program, and that the old 'brushed metal' interface needs an update. -- These are the only reasons why I don't give it 5 stars.

I appreciate that there has not been a program update for years, but hopefully the developer will find time to 'freshen up' this gem of a program.

PDFKey Pro

THEBRYCEMAN  I have purchased several different utilities for unlocking PDF's in the past, and PDFKey Pro is by far the simplest and the best at a very reasonable price.

THEBRYCEMAN  PDF-Recover is fantastic. I have tested it with a few of my files and (40bit an 128bit encrypted) and it openend them all... Actually that is a bit scary! Still for fast PDF recovery this does an excellent job!

Product Activation is a little cumbersome (but probably necessary). However, I recently I had an activation problem and the staff at Universe Software / Ovis were incredibly fast to respond and fixed my problem straight away.

Highly Recommended.

BwanaDik
Jun 17 2006

THEBRYCEMAN  BwanaDik is THE BEST IP monitoring Menu Bar Application. I have tried many others and BwanaDik is now the best all round! Simple, elegant and does everything I want.

I only reviewed version 2.0 a week ago and can't believe that version 2.5 is now out with E-mail support!

So, in a heart beat I have now donated as promised. Thanks for a great App John!

THEBRYCEMAN  Bwanadik is a well done app that I have used many times and it was very useful when had a bad ADSL connection.

However I have had to go back to IP Menu (very similar program) as it automatically sends an e-mail if your IP address changes. If Bwanadik could encorporate an automatic e-mail system on IP change then I would use it and donate to the author in a heart beat.
