GoneIn60s

Version: 1.3

Useful and original, but you have to know how to use it (read my explanation)

Pros: The idea is really original and good. When you click X in the window, it hides the window and after the time (60 secs by default) the program closes the application. That's ok for programs like Internet Explorer, Calculator, Media players and any other software that is not an editor (for example Notepad, Excel, etc.). Read my "Cons" below to understand why.

It has no installation wizard (just copy it to a folder), so no unistall is necessary, just delete the folder.

Cons: There is no documentation at all, so I've to figured out the behavior.

You should add a lot of exceptions... Word, Excel, Visual Studio, etc. Why? Because these programs are already asking to you if you are sure of clossing without saving. With this soft running, if you click on the X of Word without saving, you don't get the warning, and normally the application will hang without beeing able of showing to you your opinion. Otherwise, you have to change your habbits... for example if you want to close Word you have to go to the menu and click File / Quit. This way "Gone in 60" doesn't influence in the standard behavior.

All Mobile Mines

Version: 4.0.1

Really fun and easy to use Minesweeper

Pros: It works! And you can do anything you do in PC only with the Stylus.

Cons: The list of countries in the record table is a little difficutl to use.

It would be easier if the system remembers your name and country.

Product:

DevForce Express

Version: 3.6

Very complete. Imprescindible to see tutorial videos to use it

Pros: There are other similar softwares, but this is really what I was searching for:

- It creates bussines objects based on database structure.

- Zero configuration needed.

- Integrates with DataBinding objects.

- Very good documentation, tutorial and forums

- Free edition is enough to do a lot of things

- You can code in n-tiers in just one computer and deploy each tier to a different machine in production.

Cons: You have to see the videos on the web pages. They explain how it works. If you don't follow them, you won't be able of doing anything. But if you follow it you will be working in minutes.

Omnidea Rulers

Version: 1.1.194

Next version will be better :-)

Pros: Simple, small. It adds a rule to the screen margin, and you can add vertical and horizontal lines

Cons: The configuration screen is very ugly. I hope that the internal code is better coded than the form designed :-)
