ASM is the reincarnation of the application switcher menu. It's highly customizable and offers some nice extra features, such as "Classic Window Mode" (orders all windows of an application to front when it becomes active) or "Single Application Mode" (automatically hides applications other than the front-most one).
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />ASM has been in my collection of must-haves for many years. I like the App Switcher aspect but I really depend on the "Classic Window Mode".
The developer has delivered a fast clean upgrade. I jumped right on it and even paid the Family License (even thought I don't have one :-). But I do have both a desktop and a laptop and for the cost it is a great helper.
Thanks for the fast fixes! And I hope the number of people who feel your paid upgrade is worth the small cost FAR outweighs those who are griping.

...n<br />This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I certainly don't mind paying $9+ for an upgrade to this admirable little app having used it and its frequent updates for seven years without any additional payment, but why, oh why, are existing registered users being asked to pay the same as new users? Surely something like $8 for registered users and $12 for new users would have been more equitable, wouldn't it?

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Now available on the developer's website.
I'm a bit surprised to have to buy a new license, having bought one less than a year ago.
But I'm relieved to have my ASM back.
Like a junkie, I guess, I'll keep paying for my ASM fixes.
Great APP!!!!!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />The only downside is that when I use someone else's computer, I am so used to ASM that at first I get disoriented, and have to think to myself "how do these primitive people navigate between programs without ASM?"
Works Great IN TIGER!!!! Great APP!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This fixes submenus. An excellent utility which I believe was well worth the price. The developer has stayed on top of this product and continues to make it compatible with the latest version of Mac OS X.
ASM 2.2 - Just What Leopard Needed!

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Having just bought a MacBook Pro, immediately upgraded to Leopard, and migrated from my 10.4.10 Titanium G4, I was initially disappointed that ASM didn't work. It soon became evident how much I had come to depend on ASM. But all is well again since I discovered this morning that ASM is now Leopard-ready and installed it. ASM is again working flawlessly.
Thanks for the update!
