Bud's Biased Utils Report #31
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well there's no real report this week... seems although I was done on time
last week, no one else was... sigh... perhaps one day NWR will be on time
two weeks in a row.
Anyways I discovered we were in a rush to get this double issue out... and since
I've worked every day since the last one, I said fuck it... I'd rather not do
a half assed job. However, I did notice a few utils worth mentioning, thought
I'd point them out.
XF gets credit for a fully working SurfCam 99, Corp got out a few addons for Solid
Works that might be worth grabbing. PWA gets kudos for PeachTree Complete
Accounting 7, for those of you REALLY desperate for an accounting package, check it
out. Someone release Simply Accounting 7 Canadian (yeah, hey, I'm too lazy to myself),
and I might actually use it. And while on the topic, XF strikes again with
MS Money 2000 & the Deluxe edition of the aforementioned package. Where was PWA
on that???
Pinnacle get their first major app in a while with Visio 2000 Standard (v6.0 if
you're counting). Damn. I missed a good week. LND put out CamWorks 99, and DOD
Act 2000 Final from Symantec. Corp put out Oracle 8i Personal and something
else I've forgotten. Honestly though I have to give kudos to XF for actually
doing something really productive and suprising me.
Finally, more talk of moving out of efnet this week, as groups panic over the
recent busts. Hmmm anyone remember XNet?
Disclaimer: It's BIASED moron. My opinion. So don't send me a bunch of mail
& messages bitching about this or that. If you don't like
it... SCREW YOU =]
Rankings: Groups get a score out of 10. Points are given for amount of
releases, but QUALITY titles will give a group a much higher score.
Nukes for duping, broken releases and just plain CRAP will lower
a groups score. However on the occasion that a title is nuked which
I don't feel should have been, MY OWN JUDGEMENT TAKES PRECEDENCE.
Cuz I'm writing this. Groups can also get points for any other
reason I see fit.
Week: Week is based from 08/10/99 to 08/16/99. I'm in the EST time zone so
dates/times run according to it.
Groups: (In no particular order)
Sorry, no full report this week... blow me. Anyone interested in that offer
please message me on efnet IRC.
New this week: N/A
Idle this week: PRM, LND, DOD, SCUM.
Quote(s) of the Week: "My dreams aren't so empty as my conscience seems to be"
