i love it, but it keeps disappearing
plaintiger- Pros
- shows me the status of my 'net connection at a glance, and more at a click.
- Cons
- has been disappearing from my menu bar lately - it might be closing/sleeping my MacBook Pro that makes it go away...but i'm not sure. i've just often looked for it and found it AWOL lately (i'm running 10.6.4)
- Summary
- i've been using BwanaDik steadily on all my machines for about two years now, i think...i love its functionality; it's one of the first things i install after getting a new machine or wiping or creating a new user on an old one. and i don't even use all its functionality - namely, i don't have it display any alerts. i just love its combining the IP-address-in-menu-bar function with the little customizable status light that tells me how my connection's doing at a glance. my only complaint is that version 3.3 doesn't seem to be completely comfortable with 10.6.4; i keep looking for BwanaDik in my menu bar and finding it's quit somewhere along the line...and i've never seen a crash report or alert about it on my screen, so it must be crashing very surreptitiously, below the OS's radar or something. it's disconcerting...such that i think i might look around and see if there's another app that provides quite the same functionality.
very useful with unreliable providers

- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This has been such a great helper app for me as I travel around with my laptop. Please, if you use it, support the developer so he will keep it going as in this update. There's a paypal link on the download. Send the guy a few bucks. It's worth it. Thanks! --Drew
I had no idea the old version wasn't working

- Cons
- Summary
- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Honestly, I have been using the previous version of BwanaDik for so long I had no idea it even had Leopard issues. I wonder what they were. I never had any problems, but I have upgraded and everything's still fine. Good work. If I had to list the most indispensable free Mac utilities out there, BwanaDik, RSS Menu, Butler, Adium and Warp would be among the top ten. There's just something perfect about this group.
Outstanding!

Great utility
VersionTrackerUserOpinion- Pros
- Cons
- Summary
- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is a great utility if you are sharing a wireless connection. It allows you to monitor and get notified if your connection gets interrupted. The biggest issue is that release 3.0.4 is nowhere to be found, and the website doesn't seem to work anymore. The author suggested that this is 159% freeware, and doesn't want to be contacted, but i'd rather give him something for his time so he can maintain it! It does seem to take a lot of memory for what it does, but it doesn't seem to slow down my system.
Good and usefull software
