Great product for what it does.

Pros
A ton of code. Works well.
Cons
Learning curve can be a little steep, although there is a LOT of help in the forums.
Summary
It works well. Used Lucene.NET and the HtmlAgilityPack, which are both amazing products. Just pull out a calculator and ask yourself, how fast can I type in 8 hours? Then, look at the 100K lines of code you get for a day's pay. :) Updated on Oct 8, 2011IMPORTANT: The D/L here is a bit outdated, as you probably noticed. The author seems to have updated to 2.6 on the site, but not here. ???
