Version: Cooliris Preview 1.7
Pros: I honestly, since discovering it, can not get on without it. It's such a superb tool! I get to preview everything, it's much quicker, and works on every sort of link [except e-mail links, which would require you to open up your mail client. ie. mailto: formats].
I'm glad it's not a little thumbnail preview that I'd have to squint at to see properly.
Cons: Sometimes the delay can be a couple seconds long, but I think it's a small price to have to pay. =)

"It does what it says but Browster does it better."
Pros: This program cut down on search time and opens windows fairly quickly.
Cons: It is a bit awkward and unwieldy to use. The instant that the mouse comes to a stop over a link it will begin to open the site in a preview. Browster does a much better job of leaving you in control of what you want opened and when you want it opened.

Version: Cooliris Preview 1.7
Pros: Pretty easy to use. I like how Cooliris allows me to save time browsing on all websites. I think the CNET review is incorrect. It works on every website I've tried, even my own homepage. I like how the window preview size is adjustable and big enough that it lets me see what the webpage is really about, rather than being a small thumbnail.
Cons: Wouldn't mind having more preferences so I can, for instance, set up the delay/sensitivity of the preview window.

"GREAT help in shortening research/searching times"
Pros: See if a site is what you're looking for before you open it - see dead links before you wait ages for them to NOT open - see images much quicker ...
Cons: On smaller screens, the 'extra' window may be a problem - on my G5 Mac (using Safari) with cinema display it is great!

"Opens a huge picture of the site"
Pros: You can see the site before you click on it.
Cons: It opens a huge picture of the site that takes up half the page. I wish it opened a small thumbnail of the site. But it doesnt.
