4 stars (Mac Fonts) - Was pretty excited when I saw the fonts package. The box said "Over 1000 TrueType fonts" I figured that it meant just subtle variations of the same. While this was true for the majority of the fonts, the "BN" set of fonts had the most variety. The little quick reference guide book was very helpful with letting you get a peek at what the fonts look like to see if you even want to load it on your system. The book however was at times a little confusing, the names of the fonts would be on top of the fonts for some and then under the fonts for others. You had to kind of double check that the one that you wanted was the one that you installed. Played with some of the fonts in LiveType and I had a blast. Since I kind of wanted to see the fonts in action I would look through the book then choose a font to load. For it to take effect I had to keep restarting LiveType for the font to show up. So after a while just loaded a bunch of them and then made some scrolling text. Had lots of fun with the "Xmas Lights BRK" & "New Year Dingbats". Being able to take just the dingbats and alter them on screen give rise to lots of new and creative ways for me to make my designs a bit more fun and have very different appeal. There were also some more down to earth fonts like "Boron" & "Teen Bold" that gives a bit more punch than "Times New Roman" but still not be to off putting. Also previewed the fonts in TextEdit to get a feel for the differences quickly. All in all really liked what the package had to offer even with the limited font manager and having to load each individual font. The variety of new fonts is worth it. 5 stars (Finally a font collection for Mac!) - It's about time someone gave Mac users a reasonably priced font collection! MacFonts has over 1000 TrueType fonts in three categories: classic, refined and designer fonts. You can even use the included font manager to activate your font selections temporarily or permanently; very cool! ...

1 stars ((Zero Stars if I could) The worst font software ever!) - As a graphic designer, I bought this software for use with my freelance work. This software boasts 750 fonts. Nowhere on the box does it happen to mention that the fonts can ONLY be used for personal use. I had to open the box first, after I had purchased the program. Now, all 750 fonts in the software are completely useless to me. Heck, they could offer 10 million fonts in their software packages if they want, but what good is it if I can't use them for my freelance work? Aside from being deceived about the fonts, the FontManager software they boast about requires the CD be inserted into your computer for it to work. That means that if you're designing something (as you would presumably be doing with this font software) you couldn't insert other CDs, like for instance, stock art CDs -- all because this inferior piece of junk software must use that CD drive in order to work. I wasted $30 on this useless piece of junk. Please don't make the same mistake. ...
