Summary: an excellent product made even better
Review: I've had earlier versions of this product and eagerly await updated editions since they only get better. For those who have never used it, this is an indispensable tool to open a wide variety of files you may get through the Internet or shared in other ways for which you have no application on your computer. This includes the latest MS Word and Excel 2004 files as well as WordPerfect 12.

This highly clever and sophisticated program, which installs very quickly and easily, allows you to open most Windows files, pictures, and e-mail attachments you can't otherwise. It converts both Windows and Macintosh files and allows you to share reformatted files easily on disk or through the Internet.

With this program you can translate virtually any file you get, and also view files or pictures with applications you don't own. Further, you can create custom settings to automatically convert certain files. This feature I like since I can drag old databases I created in MS Works in the late 1980s onto a separate icon you can set up to automatically convert them to recent database programs. Slick!

For the few files you still cannot open, the program gives tips on opening them, though with past editions I would have liked more information offered here. So far, I'm not sure what to expect on this issue with Version 15.0 since everything I've tried to open has indeed opened fine!

One recent feature of MacLinkPlus allows you to carry documents on your iPod, such as directions and "to-do" lists. But not having an iPod, I can only guess is a good feature.

All and all, I find this product very very useful and wonder how anyone can live without it.
