   Review - BurnAware Free

   2.3.9 (Aug 27, 2009)

   This program works great. I have been using it for years with no problems. I don't know what all the complaints are about.
   
   The program is small, fast, has a nice user interface, and doesn't take up lots of memory OR try to shove an ugly theme down my throat.

   Review - Awasu

   2.3.4 Alpha 1 (May 6, 2008)

   Boo to this. If you look on the homepage of Awasu they have carefully removed any trace of 'buy' or 'purchase' links, making it difficult for Betanews to actually confirm its freeware/shareware status. I would not want a program on my computer from a developer that does that.

   Shame on you.

8. Comment - Plug-In Raises Firefox Security Doubts

   2.3.4 Alpha 1 (Jul 19, 2005 - 5:43 PM)

   This is just dumb. Of course plugins can cause security problems. I mean, Firefox plugins are intended to be able to do 'virtually' anything. Theoretically you could write a Firefox extension that accesses your entire hard drive.
   
   The entire structure of Firefox plugins would have to be reconsidered/rewritten to prevent any security problems. Franky, I don't think this is Firefox's problem at all.

9. Comment - Gates Promises Interoperable Software

   2.3.4 Alpha 1 (Feb 7, 2005 - 12:59 AM)

   I hope you don't really expect anyone to believe that. You can say that because you are supporting your idealism, in this case that open source works and is great. (which it is).
   
   If somebody actually gave you Disney, you would not give it away. You would s*** your thinking immediately and start charging lots of money. Anybody would.

10. Comment - Trillian 3 to Enter Beta Testing

    2.3.4 Alpha 1 (Aug 16, 2004 - 4:57 PM)

    How is it poor branding? All their products are clearly branded. I've seen a lot worse version numbering... I think it makes perfect sense in the content Cerulean Studios has explained it (see above post).
