Absolutely beautiful application! What OS X freeware *should* be: simple, powerful, elegant. Two small suggestions on making this piece of software even better: ability to pass extra arguments and parameters to qstat (in the case of SGE), to select other people's jobs, extended job information, queue names, etc... Also, a bit of documentation would be great! Fantastic! |

Beaming onto the ceiling sounds really interesting... Do you have any pictures? |

Excellent, very elegant solution! I do have a couple of things I would like to see in a future implementation: (a) Mounting without turning on Disk Mode on the iPod, or mount the iPod on-the-fly if it isn't already. (b) Mount the iPod as a complete read/write iTunes library so that I can access all of my iPod songs, edit them, use a visualizer, and do everything else I would in iTunes, but with my iPod as the source of the library. (Don't know how syncing would handle some of this stuff, though...) Excellent app! Must-have! |

Simply beautiful. I look forward to seeing this one evolve. My only small criticism is that for a visual display that visually morphs, fades and glides, there are, from time-to-time, what look like abrupt cuts between particle configurations. These cuts seem a little out-of-place and are a bit visually confusing. This is a very minor grips for such a breakthrough visualizer. I still can't figure out how it seems to match the mood of each song: funky songs look funky, gentle songs look peaceful, etc... Amazing! |

This software looks like EXACTLY what I need to share my music library between my home and my work computer. It would solve a big headache I've had in managing my music library. But it costs 29€, and there's no way I'm paying that much for something that I might even be able to write myself. Sorry, but no... |

I have to admit, I haven't been very impressed with Microsoft's Mac products in the last little while, and I was prepared to dislike this product from the start, but so far so good... The feature set is fairly complete and the interface is nice and clean as well... The only oddity is that I'm actually reviewing the newer 6.1 version, which isn't posted here on MU, but is available from http://download.microsoft.com/, not in the standalone package (v6.0) but as a bundle for the IntelliType keyboard. Odd... |

I was having a problem with TextWrangler asking me for my SSH key passphrase even though I had sshLogin installed. This was happening because TextWrangler was being launched from a script being run on a remote TTY, not my login console. Thus, the environment variables that sshLogin had set up pertaining to the ssh-agent mechanism were not present, and so sshLogin was not being used. The work-around for me was to launch TextWrangler manually first, and then run the script as usual, since the existing instance of the launched program had inherited the environment form my login console... Clear as mud? :) This is probably an unusual situation, but I thought I'd just publish my findings in case anyone else was having the same problem... |

Does exactly what it says -- great for rotating small movies taken with a digital camera held sideways! |

I would like to rid my hard drive of all Microsoft applications, and Windows Media Player is the last remaining one. And that's just becaues I haven't really found a suitable replacement. Support for Windows Media on the is plentiful on the PC, but really lacking on the Mac. Apps like this one are old, unmaintained and badly written. For instance, you can't open more than 1 movie file simultaneously in WMP. The fast-forward & rewind buttons don't work. The internet plug-in can't play any video longer than 10 seconds without stopping to refill its buffers halfway through (even though you can download the entire video manually in less time than it takes to play through). This app is seriously lacking, and that says something about Microsoft's commitment to the Mac platform. |

Nice little game. It would be cool if this game used the 2005 PowerBooks' built-in tilt sensors to control the gameboard instead of the arrow keys. |

This is a great app but I did run into a little snag while backing up my copy of "This is Spinal Tap": DVDBackup refused to extract the files VTS_01_3.VOB, VTS_02_1.VOB, VTS_02_2.VOB, and VTS_02_3.VOB exclusively. Everything else ripped as expected. The only way I was able to get these files properly backed-up without CSS, Macrovision or Regions was by first copying the files to my HD and THEN dropping them into the DVDBackup window. Just a heads up for anyone having the same problems... :) Also, DVDBackup should have a dial that goes up to 11! :D |

In the 240 journal entries I've written in the last year with MacJournal, I've learned to appreciate the rich featureset and capabilities of MacJournal. I'm really not sure what software other reviewers are using, but this is a great application that makes full use of the Mac OS X-included APIs and widgets. Where other developpers might throw together a piece of shareware that does what it needs to do well enough, Dan Shimpf and Mariner Software are creating a program that's not only feature-rich (spell checker, blog updating, HTML exporting, text stylization), but really rewarding and fun to use. |
