I should know better than to ask. Now that I have
some suggestions for comparing Mac software
beyond the list I generated for myself I'm in
avoidance mode. A couple suggestions I just don't
want to add to the list. A couple would be great
to do but mighty time consuming.

A couple of things have been on my mind as we
occupy the space that has had four owners in 210
years. First, what did the inside of this place
actually look like way back in 1798? And then,
what, if anything did they grow around here?
Possibly to feed the folks who braved the travels
across Pennsylvania from Philadelphia to
Pittsburgh.

The Antique
House
We know we don't have the original barn
here any longer, even though there is a 4 stall
horse barn behind the stone house. There are
still 2 cisterns behind the house as well and a
rusty water pump that I'd dearly love to restore.
The hard part is going to be picking which
project will float to the top of the list as we
determine what we can afford to do.

Software
It’s pretty inevitable that people develop varied
working methods. Hence, one application doesn’t
suit everyone equally. I find direct reviews of
individual applications useful to a point.
However, I’m finding more and more that there are
quite a number of applications aimed at managing
or enabling the same tasks — launchers, text
editing, html/css/web creation and so on. So my
question is this: Are there any definitive
sources of comparisons for software meant to
handle the same task?
