| I paid $99 for 7.6; my contribution to Apple's bottom line. I plan to upgrade to version 8.0 as soon as it ships. Have read that it is more stable than 7.6. |
| I have this set for "file-mapping only". That prevents code from hogging my address space. It's better than turning on VM since it doesn't burn any disk space. |
| This is my work, but I also find it indispensible for other things. It's better than any calculator app for doing math. Its text editor, Fred, is the one I use whenever possible (Fred Resembles Emacs Deliberately). |
| I've been using Eudora for almost as long as I've been using a Macintosh. Well worth the $40 that Qualcomm charges for it. |
| Netscape Communicator 4.01 has almost pulled me away, but I still like IE better. To keep myself from feeling too guilty about supporting Micro$oft, I support Netscape by keeping my subscription current. |
| Look here for my comments on Alco Blom's great bookmark keeper. |
| My FTP client of choice. I like its UI better than Anarchie's. |
| Apple's resource editor. Ya gotta have it. |
| I use this for the Abode newsletter. I've only scratched the surface of learning how to use it. It's expensive, but well worth it if you need to write book-length technical documentation. |
| An Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client. I use this to talk and arrange dogfights with my WWII SkyFighters buddies. $15 shareware. |
| My favorite flight sim. You can download for free a working version, playable over the net. You need to pay $30 to get a password to enable the guns. |
| Christopher's favorite flight sim. He likes the guided missiles. I just have the demo. I prefer prop planes with guns you have to aim yourself. |
| Great stunt planes and flight models. My machine is just barely fast enough to run it. Version 2 is in the works, though it will come out on Windows first. I've seen a rumour that they're working on a WWII dogfight sim. |
| I'm using this to learn Java. Its compiler is blindingly fast, but you still have to throw away all your data to make a change to your code. Asymetrix Supercede is the only Java development system I know of that lets you change your code "on the fly". This has been the case for years and years in any good Lisp, Scheme, or Smalltalk environment, and it's how I'm accustomed to writing code. Unless one of the Mac Java vendors gets a clue soon, I'll likely buy Virtual PC just so I can run Supercede . |
| DL | I used this to create GIFs for all the icons on my site. I've paid for most of the shareware I use, but this is an exception. Guess it's time... |
