Titan FTP Server 8.40 Build 1301

Reviewing 6.20 (Apr 22, 2008)

Another G6 clone and it's hideous "tree view" for organizing information. I love BPFTP, I'll stick with it; I just can't stand these "Microsoft Management Console" UIs.

LibreOffice for Windows 3.4.0

KuHGl

Reviewing 3.4.0 RC1 (May 25, 2011)

I can't believe it... since several weeks I only found many small bugs. Now I wanted to work on some documents and... I can't find any.

LibreOffice k i l l e d several documents (I assume this happened as a result of the last crash. So I only can reume, LibreOffice is simply for those people, who are brave enough to risk even severe data loss. Not only the last letter has been killed, also some *.ott (which means Templates), which I now can create completely new - very b a d!

I wanted to give LO a 'chance', but under the given circumstances I'll removit from my disk.
All of you, who go on using it: Make security copies of every single file you use and - important - don't open these copies directly with LO (so that the path to these copies can't be found by LO), but copy the to your working folder.

Also I had several severe problems using a very simple printer... with files, I worked without any problem before (*odt).

Perhaps I give it a try after a major update (4.0 or so), but for now I'm fed up with this software, which generated a few hours of u n e c e s s a r y work.

Mozilla Thunderbird (v5) for Windows 5.0 Beta 1

DudeBoyz

Reviewing 5.0 Beta 1 (Jun 3, 2011)

You can tell it's a beta. It has some screen artifact issues (moving the mouse over all the text, etc cleans it up), lacks some IMAP folder functions (like being able to hide folders locally while leaving them still existing on the IMAP server), lacks some feedback options (such as detailed status when checking multiple accounts) and it's about 40% bigger than version 3.1

Still, it's promising. I'll test it on one machine but probably use 3.1 on all the others.

Process Lasso (x32) Free Edition 5.0.0.23

tin_yeuk

Basically, Process Lasso is a VERY VERY light weighted software. I have tried several other similar softwares, but they really cannot achieve what Process Lasso can achieve. Basically, Foreground Process Thread Priority Boost is unique, and cannot be found in other similar type of softwares. One software called "Process Priority Master" which claims itself to be the best, I have tried it myself but it's nothing but just a bloatware, a real example of bloatware. It takes like 30%+ CPU in the background all the time !!! Jeremy never claims his softwares are the best, because Jeremy has a good and professional attitude, which we all should learn from him. I can tell, no other similar softwares up to the current date, performs better than Process Lasso.

Realtek High Definition Audio Codecs for Windows 2.61

DudeBoyz

Reviewing 2.58 (Mar 4, 2011)

These seem to cause trouble on my Windows XP systems but help on my Windows 7 system. Mixed bag, as usual.

Given that Microsoft has pretty much ripped out the sound code and rewrote it all in software, and that multi-core systems are in place in many homes, onboard sound can give very, very good results compared to dedicated cards.

Given how inconsistent Creative drivers have been over the years, it's no wonder that most people are not upset about the change in the way sound is processed in Vista and Win 7 and the push for onboard sound has taken hold so substantially .

Regardless, I'm not that happy about the combined codec download and codebase. I wish that they would optimize code for each chipset on each platform. As it is, if they tweak stuff for Win 7, they sometimes goof up something in Windows XP, and that kinda sucks.

But it is what it is and it works ok for now I guess. I can always just leave the XP systems at the earlier versions.

NOTE:

R257 = version 6299
R258 = version 6316
