Comments on another “ten good OS X apps”
Res IpsaBenson Varghese posts one of the popular lists: “Ten Free Mac OS X Programs that Make the PC to Mac Switch a Breeze”. His list is not the same as my list was the other day. And he covers some other areas. I’m a fairy recent switcher (a year or so by now) and have some comments on his software suggestions:
1. Quicksilver – I tried this but things that the Spotlight that’s bundled with Leopards reaches up to very much was Quicksilver did for the OS X pre-Leopard.
2. Anxiety – Haven’t tried but sounds like a great idea.
3. Caffeine – I don’t really see the need for this. Is it that heard to change the screensaver and power settings?
4. Growl is cool!!!
5. Adium is on my list too! :-D
6. Smultron – Texteditors can’t be discussed, it’s about feelings and taste.
7. Skim – This one I will certainly check out
8. VLC is for all platforms, isn’t it? (It’s on my list too :-D)
9. iStat menu really is cool. (Guess whos list it is on? )
10. Rachota – I haven’t checked this one out but I guess it’s another of those applications that there are ten per dussins of that aims for all prosticonsultants/lawyers bad consious for the time reporting every week/month…
