Although it's 32 bits and not updated in 7 years, it's a lot faster than Hex Fiend, especially when comparing huge files.

When searching for a hex value (I think “3C 3F“ is a valid search) a pop up window says it’s not a hex value and hangs. Must be force quit.

OS X 10.4.11 Intel supported, but not OS X 10.4.11 PPC? The majority of OS X 10.4.xx users are PPC users...

Like the description says, this is a hex editor. If you don't know what that is, you don't need it. Seriously, it's primarily a tool for developers, although it can also be used to "crack" applications in order to pirate them.
