Piltdown Link Checker 0.6
Piltdown Link Checker is a HTML link checker more>>
Piltdown is written in Perl and will run on nearly any networked computer.
I wrote Piltdown after becoming frustrated with the alternatives. Most link checkers available on the Internet are either incomplete, inaccurate, or both. For example, certain Web servers do not respond appropriately to the HTTP "HEAD" request, so well written link checkers that depend on HEAD will report missing links where there are none. (My testing suggests that these non-compliant servers come from a certain corporation with initials "MS". Why am I not surprised?!) Another GUI based checker for OSX worked well, but flagged all relative links with a leading "/" as errors when they were not. And what about links that hide inside of CSS or javascript files? Most link checkers cant look inside these non-html files.
So there you have it. Piltdown is available for free (!), but please do not repackage or charge a fee for it. Piltdown comes without warrantee of any kind, expressed or implied. That said, feel free to contact me with questions, bug reports, or requests for future enhancements. Like to know where the funny name came from? Read about Piltdown Man, the missing link!

Mail Checker 2.0.1 won't make you disappointed because it is a very simple dashboard widget that displays the number of unread messages in your Gmail or Yahoo! mail account.
As you can see it takes the form of a British postage stamp. The stamp will turn red when you have mail waiting - the number will also increase to display the number of unread messages. Clicking on the stamp will open your mail inbox in your default web-browser.
If you have more than one account then just add more copies of the widget to your dashboard. You're going to need to be able to tell the difference between your different mail accounts in this case - not to worry, Mail Checker is currently available in 4 different flavors.

PPC Checker 2.61 is designed to be a comprehensive and small utility written by Michiro Isobe which will report whether your G3 CPU is Copper or Aluminum based and reports the CPU revision for both G3 and G4 CPUs. PPC Checker will also report if your G3 has a 10x bus/cpu ratio capability. (A plus for older Macs with lower bus speeds.)
Note: The G4 7440 may use the same core as the 7450 chip and therefore would be reported as a 7450. (The 7440 is a lower power version of the 7450 without any L3 cache support.) The first PowerBook G4/667 results show a 7450 CPU and may be the 7440 chip for instance.

- Mac OS X 10.3.9
- Mac OS X 10.4 Intel
