"It’s getting better and better. Its usability lies somewhere between Apple and Windows. Thanx Cupertino, if only Airplay would be that open, too!"

picasa
"Outdated as Google doesn’t maintain it any more. PlayOnLinux has a newer version."

shotwell
"This Ubuntu version cannot connect to online accounts under Cinnamon, because it’s missing Gnome’s central account settings. See http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1539"

gprename
" Neither neat nor useful with nemo."

thunar
"Basic, therefore very fast. For a nemo user like me, its only usage is with the command "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/Thunar/ThunarBulkRename %F" for bulk renaming files and/or folders :-)"

luckybackup
"It’s a kinda swiss army’s backup tool. Although it needs some understanding, it covers all use cases from the beginner’s (in the basic configuration) to the specific needs of a nerd (with a fine-tuned configuration)."

pyrenamer
"Useful but cannot rename directories"

gadmin-samba
"Originally a nice concept of a GUI, but nowadays rather outdated with its settings. The smb.conf it creates is way too overcomplicated. In Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca you don’t really need it as you can share any of your folders in (any) file manager by simply right clicking on it and making it public."

opera
"Using Opera since its very beginnings. If it was open source, the community could jump in to save Presto, its engine, like Mint did save GNOME 2 with MATE. I also liked very much its built-in e-mail client—I’ve never ever used another one on the PC for years now."

xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
"It brings out the best in any touchpad, but you can’t avoid manual work: http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1361"

grub2-splashimages
"It’s relatively easy to install, if you know how to do it: http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1357"

ttf-unifont
"One of the few fonts that plays nice with the grub menu, in which it should have a size of 16pt and bold style."
4
cryptmount
"Adding it to your software installation is enough in itself to handle encrypted USB sticks or drives easily."
4
cryptsetup
"v2:1.4.3-2ubuntu1 cannot resume from hibernation."

firefox
"The only thing I’ve never liked in Firefox is its bookmark management which I find illogical. The original version in Nadia froze often my X, but v22.0 produced now a HW crash like switching off with the power button. Never seen something like that since Windows 3.1."

font-manager
"v0.5.7-4 doesn't work very well w/ Nadia: enable/disable feature has no effect and its deprecated ~/.fonts folder causes nemo to issue a warning message by slowing down the start of the latter so that nautilus shows up instead."
