Google On Your Mac: Just Say No To Google Desktop.

GoogI like Google. So much is oh so free. Google search. Google maps. Google Earth. Google email. It’s a healthy list of free tools.

Google Desktop is free. You get exactly what you pay for. A Mac desktop not ready for prime time. Why does Google do this for Mac users?

I assume that if you have almost as much money as God, and a stock price at a similar point somewhere in the heavens, you can do what you want. I just can’t figure out what Google wants.

The “free” part is.... (excerpted).

I’ve got Google Deskstop for Win installed on my work machine and honestly, it has saved my behind several times. It’s ability to cache email that you want to delete and then make that cache keyword searchable has bailed me out.

Now the Mac version…I put it on my Mini at home and it bogged it down so much that I took it off. Someone wake me up when it proves itself as useful as the one for Win.
