  1. Review - SUPER ©

    2009.build.36 (Jun 12, 2009)

    Appalling website with the download link requiring you to spend at least 5 minutes looking for it.

    Other than that, this program has been useful to me on ocasion and never crashed or let me down, so since I'm rating the program it gets a 5.

    The website would score a 0.

  2. Review - Windows Media Components for QuickTime

    2.2.2.7 (Jun 10, 2009)

    This is in fact version 2.2.3.7

    Works pretty well for me. Slightly stupid that you're supposed to pay to make WMV files though.

  3. Review - REAPER for Windows (x86)

    3.0 (May 26, 2009)

    There really aren't words to describe how spectacular this piece of software has become over the last few years.
    With version 3 it has really solidified and become strongly worth considering among the expensive alternatives.

  4. Review - CPU-Z

    1.51 (Apr 28, 2009)

    Why on earth have they given it an installer?
    The whole point of it (for me) was that it was portable and could be used to analyse core system components when diagnosing faults.

    They've kept the version without though, so that's all good.

  5. Review - Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows XP

    8.0 (Mar 19, 2009)

    Easily the best browser that Microsoft have made thus far.
    Still quite a long way behind Chrome, Opera and Firefox in terms of performance, but excellent from a web designers viewpoint.
    Thank you, Microsoft.

  6. Comment - Silverlight 3 goes live on Microsoft's servers

    8.0 (Jul 9, 2009 - 4:56 PM)

    Alas Sky (satellite TV in the UK) use it on their streaming service.

  7. Comment - Silverlight 3 goes live on Microsoft's servers

    8.0 (Jul 9, 2009 - 4:04 PM)

    Hooray! It hasn't broken any of the sites that have decided they want to use it for me.

  8. Comment - Sony CEO Stringer: No PS3 price cut

    8.0 (Jul 8, 2009 - 5:14 PM)

    They're suggesting that the price of the hardware hasn't dropped much at all over the last 3 years? Are they joking?

  9. Comment - Don't wait for Microsoft's patch: Secure Windows now from Monday's 0-day

    8.0 (Jul 7, 2009 - 4:50 AM)

    Perhaps I should elucidate my point:
    Home machine - Not using IE.

    Waste of my time.

  10. Comment - British Telecom sacks bitterly unpopular Phorm ad platform

    8.0 (Jul 6, 2009 - 6:15 PM)

    Hooray! BT make a good move.

    Why does it leave me with suspicions that they're planning on building their own, though.
