VueScan 8.4.60 (Mac OS X)
I have an old Minolta Scan Dual II film scanner. The original Dimage driver software does not work under OS-10.5. No problem. VueScan recognized the scanner automatically. I don't know of any other application that would have worked so seamlessly. [alert admin]

xPad 1.2.6 (Mac OS X)
What a wonderful little program 
I've been looking for a simple replacement for the old classic notepad for years. I've tried them all. Most notepads are too ambitious (slow, with steep learning curves) or too simple with ugly interfaces. xPad gets it right. I use iOrganize for keeping track of my life (passwords,serial numbers, misc). But xPad now sits on my dock as an essential utility. It opens instantly, and is a great place to store misc. pieces of text etc.until I can organize them more formally. Many thanks to the creator. [alert admin]

Pester 1.0 (Mac OS X)
A nice simple interface. Would be very useful except for a fatal flaw. Let's assume I set a reminder for tomorrow at 8:00 AM. However, I over sleep and turn on the computer at 8:05 AM. -> No reminder appears. Yes there is a record of an expired reminder if you check the reminder log, but I may never do that. Sorry. Much too limited an approach [alert admin]

Ultralingua Dictionary 6.0 (Mac OS X)
Just upgraded from vsersion 5.0 to 6.0. This process eliminated my older application and made my dictionary inoperative. The only solution pay a $20 upgrade fee. There was no warning that this would happen. Fortunately, I was able to revert to version 5 from an external hard drive. Common guys... Play fair. [alert admin]

GraphPad InStat 3.0b (Mac OS 9, Mac OS X)
A God-send for the statistically challanged.
Not a substitute for high end users, but... The first program that I've found that painlessly in ENGLISH rather than mathematical jargon guides the user to the proper statistical test. The feature that I like most is that it tests your data to determine if a nonparametric test is most suitable. Yeah, its not cheap for its limited abilities, but frankly its the program I've been looking for. I love it. A Kopman [alert admin]

Firefox 1.5 (Mac OS X)
Can't give an overall evaluation, but one positive advance is noted. In version 1.07 I could crash the program at will 100% of the time by trying to search my bookmarks. [OS 10.4.3 on dual 2 mHz G5] The search function now works properly. [alert admin]

GraphClick 2.7.1 (Mac OS X)
Just used GraphClick for the first time. I wanted to use a graph from an old publication in an article to be published. The only copy of the illustration was from a pdf file I downloaded from the web. This "original" simply was not of publishable quality. The process went as follows: pdf file > copy illustration with Acrobat > past into GraphClick > copy data points generated into Excel and regraph > paste into Photoshop Elements. The result a tiff file formated to my specs. Spectacular [alert admin]

I could not agree more. Adobe went from a very pleasant interface with Elements 4.0 and Bridge to a horror with Elements 6.0 and Bridge CS3. I haven't had time to plumb all the new features, so I assume there is more functionality available, BUT... This version misses the essence of a Macintosh program: An elegant interface that is a pleasure to use. Ugh!!

If it was possible to try it........
I'm not sure what Rango is talkin about. As a single user I've been using Synch Pro X for two years to make bootable backups on two externl HDs. Never a problem. Always fast reliable.

If you don't "go into detail" your comments really aren't very helpful. Everybody's desktop is organized differently . Why not just recognize that what works perfectly for some, just isn't your cup of tea. In my case, iOrganize gets 5 stars. Akopman

What Mac OS are you using? I bet it wasn't Panther. Norton Utilities 8.0.1 is non-functional in that environment.
