   Review - Dajukebox

   2012.04.25 (Apr 26, 2012)

   Dajukebox has a differnt way of cataloging and displaying your music library from WinAmp, JetAudio, Monkey's Audio, etc.. I am glad to see someone take a whole new approach. The author's website has video help files and seems to me to be pretty complete. It will take a while for the controls to become natural but at this point I think it's great. I'd say give it a try. It's free so nothing to lose here.

   Review - CameraBag for Windows

   2 Beta 105 (Jan 19, 2012)

   Very interesting. Quick and easy to use. I may update this after playing with it for a while but so far -- only a quick overview -- it's a worthy program. May not be everyone's cup of tea but it's a lot of fun to play with. It's not going to either replace DxO Optics, my main processing program, but it's a whole different course for the not-so-serious photographer who wants to have some fun.

   Review - HWiNFO64 (Beta)

   3.90-1445 Beta (Nov 29, 2011)

   A very nice little utility. I've used it in a past iteration and liked it then too. The new interface is better, I believe. It is not orgasmic, however.

   Review - The Bat! Professional

   5.0.0.126 Beta (Jan 5, 2011)

   Why review a great app and just criticize the price? You don't want to pay for it, stay away. I pay for it because it's much more secure than the freebies. More features, better software. Troll elsewhere.

   Review - ACDSee Pro

   4.0.93 Beta (Oct 20, 2010)

   First, I've used ACDSee Pro for years. Second, DxO Optics is my main processing program. Third, I don't like Lightroom though I have it and use it occasionally. ACDSee Pro is a great program. The best for browsing. Very good for processing though it lacks some of what DxO offers.
   
   ACDsee Pro is $120. DxO is $170 to $299. Lightroom 3 is $285 at Amazon today.
   
   ACDSee Pro is 61 MB. DxO is 105 MB. Lightroom is 162MB.
   
   The only reason to use DxO over ACDSee Pro is that DxO automatically corrects for my specific camera and lens combination. I haven't used ACDSee beta 4 enough to see if it has added that feature but it used to require manual correction.
   
   ACDSee pro is not bloated. It is a great piece of software. Always has been and still is. I process thousands of photos and use it regularly to catalogue, view and process raw files. I'd say you can't go wrong with this program.
