"Still very early days for Network Magic - Alot of Improvement needed!"
Pros: File sharing is good, tells you useful information about devices connected.
Cons: If, like me, you use a wireless connection every now and then it pops up with an alert saying "network diss-connected" when infact it hasnt diss-connected at all?!!
Also there is only a small number of routers and accepted Internet Service Providers (ISP's) - which means if your ISP or router isnt listed you cannot use some of the facilities with Network Magic.
My opinion is give it a wide birth, its early days for Network Magic on this one, alot of improvements is needed, and they certainly shouldnt be asking for a fee for the use of this just yet.

Version: Network Magic 2
Pros: Easily was able to set up my network - without having to go through a million complicated steps or even running from one computer to another. My kids can now print from their wifi laptops in their bedrooms to our main printer. Made everything so much easier.

"I've got no router and my NW is firewire... Netmagic doesn't work for me!"
Cons: Im shure this is a verry good application but unfortunately it doesnt work for me. Im not shure if its because im using firewire 1394 or if its because I have no router. It a shame really I was looking forward to giving it a trial.
