I then tried LaunchBar and have been happy with it ever since,\. A great product and well worth the $20 that I originally paid. At $10 its a steal.

I liked it, but once I tried Quicksilver I was hooked. And haven't looked back since. Both apps do a great job of "Finding and Launching Applications" quickly... but its all the extras & plugins that Quicksilver has that has won me over.

I chose namely because I only needed an app launcher that was light, didn't use much memory and started up quickly when turning on my mac.

I've been using QuickSilver as a launcher but just this weekend saw the MacWorld video podcast on launchbar and was intrigued. Seeing your post that it's on MacZot for 50% off was all the motivation I needed. Just ordered my copy! I wouldn't have seen this otherwise, thanks for the tip! Thanks for the great tip Victor.

I decided to download the latest version (after not using it since its 2.x days) and was really impressed with how far (and FAST) Launchbar has come. I ended up installing Launchbar on both my Macs and registered both copies via MacZOT. At $9.95 per license, it's a steal. Thanks for the heads-up on Launchbar, Victor.
