  1. Review - Lotus Symphony for Windows

    1.2 (Nov 17, 2008)

    206mb.

  2. Review - Brilliant Database Professional

    7.1 (Sep 3, 2008)

    Liked:
    Good data massaging capabilities.
    Custom export templates.
    Script editor.
    Form designer.
    Stability (never lost data or crashed the app in 3 years of use).
    Query builder.

    Disliked:
    Support is absent of late, no forum.
    UI is kinda sticky, like a VB app.
    Re-linking to files via the URL field is a chore (dialog won't open at existing path).
    Couldn't parse a path to show just the filename.
    Couldn't link a drop-down-list to a list of field entries.
    Couldn't show column headers for mixed record types in the record-list pane.
    Couldn't nest or group records in the record-list pane.
    Couldn't build a query that checks if a field string is contained-by another field string.
    Couldn't use if/then in a text formula (must be scripted instead).
    Couldn't use modulo (%) in formulas.
    Couldn't format text to use the following characters: ; [ ]
    Couldn't add local modifier data to relational-field records, EG: product prices from a relational field of products * quantities in the local field.

    Would like to have seen:
    More comprehensive formatting and querying functions.
    Optional WYSIWYG form editing that can be exported or printed as-is.
    ToDoList-style file re-linking.
    Portable version.
    Linux version.

  3. Review - Google Chrome for Windows

    0.2.149.27 Beta (Sep 3, 2008)

    The file provided is not an installer.

  4. Review - FreeCommander

    2007.05a (Aug 2, 2007)

    Requires install.
    Cannot type a path directly into the path header.
    Visible refresh of lists when navigating and scrolling.
    Visible refresh of the entire app when bringing to the foreground.
    Seems to be all good otherwise.

  5. Review - Altap Salamander Standard

    2.5 (Aug 2, 2007)

    Have used this every day since 2003 for
    high volume file management, completely
    stable. Fast, non-stick ui. Elegant navigation.
    Only missing: in-pane quickview mode and tabs.
    Highly recommended if speed and reliability
    are most important.
