   Review - LameXP

   Totally agree with the other comments about the unfortunate lack of WavPack encoding.

   Review - Winamp 5 Full

   5.572 (Jan 13, 2010)

   I still quite like Winamp, but I don't know why they are so intent on screwing with the Media Library and Online services.
   
   Yet again they have implemented changes that are huge regressions in terms of usability and user friendliness (in favour of more adverts and other crap).
   
   I'm staying on v5.541 for now. I might get back on the update treadmill if I can find a way to reverse all these nasty changes in newer versions.

   Review - Inkscape for Windows

   0.47pre3 Beta (Sep 29, 2009)

   It says "with capabilities similar to Illustrator, CorelDraw, Visio, etc."
   
   Yeah right, in your dreams maybe.

   Review - Registry Workshop

   4.2.1 (Aug 12, 2009)

   Registry Workshop is easily the BEST registry editor by far.
   
   Top marks!

   Review - pdfFactory Pro

   The accuracy of the font rendering in PDF Factory is absolute rubbish.

   Because we pay a licence fee, that's why.

7. Comment - Facebook users share 'Everything,' including how sorry their lives are

   "The phrase was then loosed on the general public ..."
   
   "loosed"? Seriously?
   
   Are you kidding me?

8. Comment - Firefox 3.6 public beta slated for 10/14, promises faster startups, loads

   "The same degree of transparency may not be available in version 3.7 for Mac or Linux yet, but the design team aims to implement similar aesthetics for non-Windows users "going forward." "
   
   Does that mean that they are going to make Firefox look like Vista / Win 7 even when it's run on Linux???
   
   Surely Mozilla should be aiming for the browser to look NATIVE on every platform (even individual Windows versions) rather than "aiming to implement similar aesthetics" across various different GUIs.

9. Comment - China to begin reviewing all song lyrics for 'inappropriate' content

   3.49 (Sep 15, 2009 - 10:42 AM)

   I wonder if there are any Cocteau Twins fans in China?
   
   Their lyrics would certainly have the Government officials scratching their heads in bewilderment - lol.

10. Comment - Amazon opens its MP3 store to independent sellers

    Yeah, whatever.
    
    It's STILL only available in the US though, even after all this time.
