Switching from Windows to Mac
Folks – a little bit more patience, please…. still more patience… ;-)
I am still working on the WordPress-based engine for this website to give you the best possible experience during the next months and make it as userfriendly and informative as possible.
Just implemented another powerful plugin that will give you the opportunity to review/rate the programs that we will review here and provides all the review information in a nice and easy to understand format.
As usual power comes with a certain degree of complexity, since I have to integrate that plugin with the theme (the design template) of the site and the multilingual plugin, so this will take a little time.
Please expect the site to change its appearance every couple of hours during the next days. Content will start flooding in somewhen during next week.
