I have to agree with the previous reviewer this is by far the best version of Systems Works I have seen for a while.
The speed disk application is great as well as the One Click System Check, this is also a bonus to use and works very well.
Whilst the physical documentation is a bit light on the ground the ease of use and available on-line help more that makes up for it.
Overall well worth the purchase.

This is one of the software packages that I am truly impressed with and I have to say that for a computer user that values stability this is a must have on the christmas list this year.
I am impressed with just how the look has changed from the prevous version of the software and I have to say that it is running really well with Windows XP Professional and Service Pack 2. In fact, after running the speed disk application I could notice an increase in the access speed of the larger programmes like photoshop and dreamweaver.
The great thing that I like about the software is the it is so easy to use. The initial setup is someting that can get daunting, however the clever people from Symantec have built a great guide to help you with the process.
Once the unit is set up, and the updates have been done, it is just sitting in the background doing its thing. However this does not mean you have no control over it like with most windows applications, you can be involved to the level that you want and that is what I like about the software.
The thing that I most like about the software is that you can be an absolute novice and the software works to your benefit as you learn about your computer and how you can manage its resources to get the best.
now I know that some of you have been waiting for the technical specs on the software and the little differences but you have to see it to believe it. I just don't have system crashes any more and everything just works so well.
My advice to any one, Buy it! Your computer will love you for it.
