Not too bad
iamtheclerkFebruary 8, 2010
Pros
Good quotes; lots of options
Cons
For my purposes, I'd like to be able to copy to clipboard...which it DOES offer...but you have to upgrade. But $50 is WAY too expensive for such a thing...especially when there's so many sites of free collections of quotes.
Summary
A more appropriate price would be $10.
Doesn't work properly

Pros
Cons
D switch doesn't work and you can't get rid of the windows borders so putting this into the startup is a waste of time. I had a better program in my windows 3.1 15 years ago!
