Was a useful and reasonably priced app. With upgrade to v2+, now way overpriced ($19 and $49). Given the fiddliness of the previous product, I won't even both installing demos of v2+, since those prices are not at all justified by the product.

what a waste of money. Almost every time I'm trying to use my second iMac with this app, I have to go thru a lot of trouble and setups... If you like to play and try to figure things out like PC users do, this app is for YOU... but not for me... oh yes, when you try to contact support, they will tell you that they are surprised about something that works that shouldn't ... LOL
