MondoMouse is a mouse enhancement for Mac OS X 10.4. It adds cool new capabilities to your mouse. Move or resize any window without clicking on it or bringing it to the front. Find and identify any window instantly without using Expose. Make focus follow the mouse, switching windows or applications just by letting your mouse hover over them.
spotty Focus-Follows-Mouse, & no developer response

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />My main interest in MondoMouse was the Focus-Follows-Mouse aspect, and I was disappointed to find that this works only about half the time. Sometimes it just stops working (don't know Y) and I have to open System Preferences -> Other -> click on MondoMouse to get it to wake up. Also, if the pointer passes over a minimized app in the Dock, that app's window will be brought up to the foreground even tho that was not intended. Two emails to the developer about FFM produced no response, so I have to agree with 'thornist's take on this. The window Move and Re-size seem to work okay and are useful.
Truly helpful

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I was aware I wanted to have Focus Follows Mouse, but I wasn't aware that I missed a very convenient way of improving my Finder workflow ;)
An example: I do presentations very often. Almost never (actually just once so far) can I use the resolution of my MBP 15" - I have to resize the browser window etc. So far it was always cumbersome and sometimes impossible (disconnect the video projector, resize window, connect again...). Now: Resize with MondoMouse, all set up in seconds. This definitely makes my life easier.
And that's apart from the fact I have Focus Follows Mouse enabled in a very smart way, of course.
MondoMouse is stable and very Mac-like. I registered within a couple of days.
Amazing!!!!!!!!

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is one of those add-ons that I normally wouldn't think about, until I actually used it. Once I installed and try this out, I was hooked. Works like a charm, VERY Mac-like (meaning the UI is simple and everything is polished) and most importantly, it's a good price for a tool I'll use all the time. Great job!
