   Review - Notepad++

   5.4.4 (Jul 6, 2009)

   Top notch text editor. Just worried that at some point the features will tip the scale to being bloated. So far so good...
   
   @dhry: In case you don't do this yet - You might be better off to report bugs in the developer's forum than on some 3rd party site (BN)

   Review - Notepad++

   5.2 (Feb 9, 2009)

   Top program. Many enhanced features but trivial and fast to use even doe simple tasks.
   
   Note: Please do NOT waste development time in favor or other tasks on making a Win9x installer as another reviewer requested. There is a workaround for this dead OS and it should be good enough.

   Review - Notepad++

   5.1.1 (Nov 24, 2008)

   What is it with the Trojan detected by AVG in the 5.1 distribution? Anyone else notice this?

   Review - Google Chrome for Windows

   0.3.154.9 Beta (Oct 29, 2008)

   It's really irritating that it's so difficult to come by a changelist. Or is that scored on BNs behalf?

   Review - Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

   1.30 (Oct 23, 2008)

   The positive reviews here smell of fakes (just compare to reviews of any other product). That alone, besides the product being crap, should make you highly suspicious of considering this for your security.

6. Comment - Palm unveils its European Pre rollout plan

   1.30 (Jul 7, 2009 - 6:27 PM)

   I find it hard to believe that the Pre will be around for long. Contrary to BN, European sites seem to find its construction shabby. And why on earth should you invest into a brand new mobile platform of a company on the verge of extinction? It offers nothing revolutionary over other major players that are - besides iphone - supported by many hand set makers. So go invest in a Pre, wonder when those apps come while they are being developed for platforms with large market share and cry when you invested cash into the few apps that may appear when the whole platform tanks...

7. Comment - Firefox 3.5 vs. Chrome 3 Showdown, Round 3: Finding a place for more tabs

   1.30 (Jul 7, 2009 - 6:21 PM)

   FF 3.5 tab management is one of my least favorite features. It is extremely unintuitive to slide open tabs behind a greyed out arrow that typically indicates inactivity...

8. Comment - Analysts: iPhone 3G S materials cost only 2% more than 3G

   1.30 (Jun 24, 2009 - 4:28 PM)

   "The 3GS uses a single Broadcom solution for Bluetooth/FM/802.11."
   
   The 3gs has an FM radio?

9. Comment - Congress: Should cell phone exclusivity contracts be illegal?

   1.30 (Jun 23, 2009 - 7:17 AM)

   Two points of BS:
   
   "And when you purchase a wireless phone in Asia or Europe, you typically don't buy it through a wireless carrier" - Nonsense. You typically buy subsidized from the carrier in the EU (don't know Asia)
   
   "If you level the playing field nationwide, you end up driving handset prices up and the incentive to make better handsets down." - Nonsense. We are talking about exclusivity. Carriers can still subsidize as much as they want, which will effectively introduce transparent competition and drive DOWN prices.
   
   This is fairly trivial stuff. Tired of the BS spawned by corps and politicians - clearly fabricated lies on both ends to support their arguments.

10. Comment - Mozilla posts Firefox 3.5 RC1, announcement expected

    1.30 (Jun 17, 2009 - 7:48 AM)

    Let's see. I was quite shocked at the amount of crashes and bugs in the preview (only using maybe 2 add ons). They must have worked like crazy to get this to a reasonable release status...
