I'm not complaining; I think it's great that you ported EchoMac to 
the Mac OS; but the reason I don't use it is that I can't, because 
all of my Macs run OS 9.x (not OS X).  Even the Mac that I bought new 
this year and that came with OS X installed, uses OS 9 -- because I 
have many Macs and, for simplicity/reliability/redundancy, I like to 
keep the same system and same applications on all of them.
