Notepad2

Version: 2.1.19

Notepad, but roughly a billion times more useful.

Pros: It's still the basic, simple Notepad we all know, but while it looks almost the same - only one toolbar, nothing messy - it's packing loads of useful features.

Some very helpful features for any sort of code:

- Line count. Oh, and word-wrapped lines still count as one line.

- Syntax highlighting

- Featherweight - only 250kb.

- Long line marker

- Indentation markers

- Line breaks/line ends, etc markers.

Handy Free Clock

Version: 1.3

Well, it works

Pros: This isn't a bad program. It tells you the time and date, set multiple alarms, start a 'stop watch' or egg timer (count down) function, all on different tabs, as well as giving you the options to Stay On Top of other windows, run at startup and limit the number of egg timer beeps.

All of these functions work flawlessly.

Cons: However, firstly, it's pretty ugly. Secondly, it starts with a (hideable) advert. Thirdly, considering the large amount of screen area used (266x246 with borders), the text is quite small for time/date, leaving a large gap around the date/time.

Adobe Photoshop

Version: CS3 beta

Great program

Pros: This program is flawless - easy to use, advanced - leading the market in image editing.

Cons: Price. Size. For example, GIMP and Paint.NET are freeware and use under 50mb, featuring very similar (if not slightly less developed) functions.

Audio/Video To Exe

Version: 1.2

Reasonable

Pros: The program worked, and worked quickly. Easy to install (extract) and uninstall (delete). User interface clean and simple.

Cons: The sound conversion quality was of a poor standard (with 3gp to wmv).

It works, and it's free, but it's not stunning.

Acala DVD 3GP Ripper

Version: 2.5.6

Good luck...

Pros: Not a lot to say in the Pros section. It *does* see the DVD and manages to play in a preview pane, although the video is choppy and the sound is awful.

Cons: Where to start? The usability is poor - although at first glance it looks nice, you can't resize the window, the scroll bar doesn't work properly and you seem to need to trick the window into moving.

The program doesn't tell you the track (episode) names, so you have to guess which is which.

The biggest flaw of all is that it simply doesn't rip. Any DVD that has copyright protection on it - and that's any commercial DVD - throws an error. Good luck finding a non-copyright-protected DVD!

On a side note, I believe the reviews from sueanny, mikescean, ageless_25, iemmy and sunshow to be written by the same person (possibly the creator).

Sorry, Acala DVD 3GP Ripper is useless. Simple as that.
