Welcome to yet another Friday edition, which, as you may remember from last week, is now the "Freely-Distributed-Software Friday" instead of "Freeware Friday." And today's honoree is not a product but a company--one which makes some of finest free and inexpesive software available today for Mac OS X. In a case of good triumphing over evil, although Apple broke most of their software line with Jaguar, did they give up? No. Did they take months to not update their programs? No. Did they fix Apple's oversights within days of Jaguar's shipping? YES THEY DID. Am I talking about Quark? I am not... Am I talking about Symantec? I am not. I am speaking of the one and only Unsanity, makers of the "haxie" line of OS X enhancements which include:
WindowShade X 2.1.1
FruitMenu 2.5.1
Xounds 1.2
Application Enhancer 1.1
Silk 1.1
ClearDock 1.2
Dock Detox 1.0.1
Metallifizer 1.0
ShadowKiller 1.2
Cee Pee You 1.1.1 There's not a bad one in the bunch; I've purchased (and use daily) all of them except Xounds... What can I say? These guys are brilliant. Check 'em out at http://www.unsanity.com, send 'em a few bucks if you can spare it, and have a great weekend, too. :-) To discuss this tip (or anything you like) in Dr. Mac's OSXFAQ Forum, click here: http://forums.osxfaq.com/viewtopic.php?t=2600Bob LeVitus is a leading authority on Mac OS and the author of 40 books, including Mac OS X For Dummies and The Little iTunes Book.
