   Review - Weather Watcher Live

   6.0.11 (Feb 28, 2009)

   This program is nice, but for me it's worse than his other "Weather Watcher" program that uses The Weather Channel's feeds. For some reason I cannot get hourly forecasts for Israel with this one. Also, the only area it gives me is Ben Gurion, saying that Tel-Aviv is unavailable, while it works as a charm in Weather Watcher.

   Review - Ad Muncher

   4.72.30369 Beta (Apr 24, 2008)

   No ad blocker is perfect, it's an ongoing job. If you see an ad that was not blocked then just report it, won't take more than 10 seconds.

   Review - Ad Muncher

   4.72.30321 Beta (Apr 19, 2008)

   Ad Muncher is the best ad and popup blocker/remover around. I guarantee that you will not find anything as good as AM for the same price or even for a higher price, it's just the best.
   
   It filters ads from all the popular browsers and even allows you to manually add filter targets (names of executables) that you want to filter.
   
   It updates once a day to make sure that you never bump into an ad, and I never have. It's also fast and barely takes any resources.
   
   About Metshrine's review: This app doesn't deserve a 1/5, that's ludicrous, I'm not sure what he's pissed at but even though that AM does not yet support HTTP/1.1 and GZIP or per-site filtering it does its job superbly and all these features are in the pipeline for the next version.
   
   If you're going to spend cash on an ad removal software, make sure that it's this one and you won't be disappointed.

   Review - WinZip

   10.0 Build 6685 (Nov 19, 2005)

   You seriously have to be an idiot to keep using this crappy software.
   
   Not only that WinZip has the worst interface (how about showing DIRECTORIES inside the Zip for the love of god?), the ZIP format itself is _very_ much lacking.
   
   The ZIP format does not support Unicode (it uses OEM encoding) so it's just s***.

6. Comment - Yahoo, SanDisk Team Up Against iPod

   250$ for 4GB?
   
   iPod nano 4GB: 200$
   
   iPod video 30GB: 250$

7. Comment - Office 2007 Pricing, Packaging Detailed

   10.0 Build 6685 (Feb 16, 2006 - 3:43 PM)

   I wish I could agree.
   
   OpenOffice will never be as organized or as feature rich as Microsoft Office. Simply because Microsoft has lots of cash to throw at R&D.
   
   Plus, the OSS is not pushing the envelope, all it's doing is trying to offer free (and in some cases - less capable) alternatives to shareware.
   
   The new Office is a marvel from the usability and architecture point of view, it's a kick-ass product.
   
   OpenOffice will get the work done, but it's nowhere as sleek or powerful as MS Office, and as long as Microsoft is Microsoft it never will be.

   Gibson = OWNED?

9. Comment - Oracle Releases Beta of Free Database

   10.0 Build 6685 (Oct 31, 2005 - 2:13 PM)

   Why should I use this crippleware when I can gain superior functionality from PostgreSQL ?
   
   MySQL is still inferior to PostgreSQL feature-wise, but it's slowly getting there. (Maybe in 1-2 years?)
