Version: HxD Hex Editor 1.7.7.0
"Did not open in Windows 3.11"
Pros: None - it wouldn't work.

Version: HxD Hex Editor 1.7.7.0
"Great intuitive hex editor for windows"
Pros: I just had to inspect some binary files for some simple corrections, so I tried out HxD. My needs were very simple, but HxD's UI seems very well thought out and intuitive (one of my pet peeves is badly designed UI's, it kills a program for me).
Cons: I didn't try anything too complicated, and didn't run into anything bad.
Summary: Great hex editor, very well designed. Recommended.

Version: HxD Hex Editor 1.7.7.0
"Fast, lightweight and robust"
Pros: Works well as a debugging tool for programmers. I use it's built-in RAM and disk-editor to develop software for embedded systems. The support for large files/disk and export function to Intel-Hex are especially useful.
Cons: Not really a cons, more a feature wish: a window that show data interpreted (as various data types) and a structure view would be nice additions.
Summary: Nice quality addition to my toolbox. Waiting for more features.
