The backup section in the terms of service seem overly restrictive to me. It allows the user to " Make a single backup copy of the Software for archival purposes only." These are digitally downloaded files, and as such they will be (or at least should be) included in any backup-schedules running on the computer. I've prob

Great! World class support, as always (not that I've needed it very often). Thank you! :)
I bought a renewal for my OD-suite subscription, but its not reflected in my account, is that something I should worry about or will it sort itself on its own before my old subscription runs out mid-November? :)
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="33" id="3403953"] Carl, I installed SDC after installing ODM, and all is well. I can use SDC for the rest, until hopefully, Stardock adds the other stuff to ODM, maybe as a setting? Rather than Hide Software, there could be a Show Other Software setting, for those who want it. No sense in having to use ODM and SDC.[/quote] But if the intention is to have an "everything-manager" ODM becomes what SDC already
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="83" id="3404144"] mickeko, I like the weather and clock, what are those? Gadgets?[/quote] That's good ol' rainmeter. The skin is Torn Paper by UltimateRT which can be freely downloaded riiiight HERE .
Hell (terribly sorry about that, no offence intended)
It has been *ages* sinca I posted here and I can't really remember why I stopped. But I'll just cut to the chase and do the desktop thingy.... I've gone pretty vanilla and stripped off the bling at the moment...
It's quite daring to put the Apple logo in a skin and sell it btw... But I'm sure Apple will let it slip .... NOT! So grab it while it's up, I don't expect it'll be around in this incarnation very long....
Ack! You want us to PAY for the apple logo? That's not kosher!!! ;) Looks like a sweet skin... Must resist 'til pay day though. Mind is strong, body is weeeeak... :)
[quote who="Nyxmorph" reply="50" id="2567244"]OMG is it out yet?[/quote] I'm quite sure they won't sneak it out quietly. ;)
[quote who="SvSchfer" reply="37" id="2561046"]customer relations aren't really Stardocks strength.[/quote] Support and service is at good enough level, with great people who do their job just fine. The only exception is when I sent a mail to [email protected] and got a reply from [email protected] stating that I couldn't get help because [email protected] is for technical support... Guess someone woke up in the wrong department or something. :D
[quote who="Randall30" reply="26" id="2560828"]OD is not made by Stardock it's a side project and frogboy could give a flying leap if it ever gets done? Someone working at Stardock shouldn't tell their users to piss off. [/quote] Frogboy can tell me to piss off any time he likes, I don't mind. If it hadn't been for him I'd have given up on Stardock a long time ago. As a company, Stardock doesn't really impress me much, but the colorful personalities of the people working th
[quote]The next whiney post you make Mickecko on this forum will be your last. You are under the false assumption that you have some sort of leverage over us. You don't. I don't care if you buy ObjectDock 2. Your pre-order entitles you to nothing more than being part of the beta (and then getting the final version when we deem it ready for general release).[/quote] I have no clue what you're on about. You obviously completely missed my point. I made a more elaborate
Graphics cards is probably the only area where the common reaction to it being broken is "as long as I can circumvent it and it's faster than my neighbours', I'll use it". :P
[quote]Also... some support for Jorge and Winstep: He deserves it. He really does. He has a heart of gold and does his best all alone.[/quote] I didn't intend to demean Jorges work, he's absolutely amazing when it comes to development and support. Winstep is a great application suite. But the fact remains, he's not a huge company, so I can easily accept that support and development halts for a bit should he fall ill, take a vacation, get a computer crash or whatever... I don't
[quote who="Jafo" reply="39" id="2556440"] Most are happy to wait patiently....it's ready when it's ready, but on these forums you see the vocal minority venting spleens, etc.[/quote] Well, not keeping promises tend to make people annoyed. Actually, as with the "happy to wait"-people, most annoyed people won't post anything either unless it's a really severe issue. You can't say for sure that the majority of users of any product are ha
[quote who="MichaelG04" reply="19" id="2554870"]well, considering it sounds like 1 man working on it, while working on other things, not to bad[/quote] That would be true for Winstep for example, which is a one man hobbyist shareware application (who actually release update on update covering even the tiniest bugs), but that's not the case here. Objectdock is one of the best known applications of its kind, supported by a fairly large company. To me it sounds like nothing else than poo
[quote who="WebGizmos" reply="17" id="2553429"]I'm sure it will be worth the wait. [/quote] I doubt it, many full games are developed in less time than we've waited... :) It'll be good when it's finally here though.
[quote who="Moscheqe" reply="12" id="2551795"]I almost feel I've been 'done'. [/quote] There's no question about the fact that you'll receive a product, so I don't really see why you feel that... [quote]perhaps its about Stardock testing the water to see if version 2 will have much attention from the community.[/quote] OD+ 2 will cause a community buzz, there's nothing to test about that. Don't be silly. :)

[quote who="WinMonster2" reply="9" id="2551627"]A friend of mine said he had a exchange with someone in sales @ Stardock and he was told it is going to be more like mid march can anyone confirm this?[/quote] I have an inofficial slogan for Stardock that goes something like this: "What you see is what you get. What we say is something you might see sometime, but most likely not at the time we tell you."
[quote who="Philly0381" reply="46" id="2550604"]ObjectDock and Fences really are meant to do different things. I use both. [/quote] I also use both. I don't agree with you in that they do different things though. The difference is in presentation, not function. They'll not merge the two now anyway, it's too late for that, doesn't really matter if it would make sense or not. :)
[quote who="WebGizmos" reply="44" id="2550547"] Because when you start merging one program with another you end up with more bugs. I didn't care for fences to much since it causes problems with others apps and OD doesn't have that problem. I'd much prefer they didn't do it for that reason.[/quote] I don't see how that's any different from any other feature being added... There's always a risk of something going wrong. And like the current "stable" Objectdock, you can always just

It'd be interesting to know what range of extremely specialized applications you have installed on your computer if that's the ca
