Hi Michiel,

Weird, I’ve never experienced any such issues with it (use it every day). Sorry to hear that it didn’t work well for you.

Correction on the above: Zooom appeared to have been the app that totally crashed my Leopard once or twice a day. The _windowmanager process spiked to 99%, which is not an app that could be force quit. So the only option remaining was holding the powerbutton for 5 seconds.
After removing Zooom this has not occurred anymore…
Too bad, I really liked the app, and support is great.

Ahh, I didn’t know Zooom till now.
Ranks right up there with Quicksilver, Caffeine and GrabUp!

Hey maysun,

You know there’s an unsubscribe feature on your RSS reader, right? Give it a shot if what interests me at the moment doesn’t interest you — no hard feelings! :)

I have the Lacie rugged too. It’s the same size with my MBP’s HHD so it’s perfect for SuperDupering. Glad that Leo now works for you although that I have to say that Tiger was the best upgrade ever since 10.2 that I met OS X.
Just a friendly note to your readers: Please don’t trust the “upgrade” option on any major version of any OS(NO I am not talking about windows). Remember.. clean install == healthy OS(the OS var CANNOT accept value of wind*)!
