Last year I explained in detail that I didn't like the old Mestre-C. I simply wanted to demonstrate that I am the most biased source of information that you can find. How much dependable am I for you? Don't get me wrong, both products are so nice and stable and offer such a wonderful customer support that there is no concern of going out of business. If Mestrelab goes out of business, I go out of business as well. Why should people read such a book when both programs can be downloaded and tested in less time? The truth why I can't write that book is that I am too much involved, it's so dangerous.
If I start writing, I could write a book, like Rodgers and Hart. Something fascinating for me but no other human being can stand a whole day listening to it. If I start speaking about the difference between iNMR and MNova, I can go on for a whole day, telling you the whole story and philosophy of both. People keep asking me which program to buy for the Mac: iNMR or MestreNova? There are many other alternatives (NMRPipe, Jeol Delta, NMR Notebook, NUTS, VNMRJ plus, in the future, TopSpin and SpinWorks) for Mac OS X, but the first two products are so far ahead of competition that you must be eccentric or masochist to even consider something different.
