Ironically, since the overall look and feel of SystemWorks has remained largely unchanged for years (aside from some Aquafication in the OS X version), some long-learned Mac-user behavior can get you into trouble during the install process. If you use a variety of the SystemWorks tools, you can save space by using the new Norton Launcher to make one alias in your Dock or preferred launch utility. SystemWorks 3.0 installs cleanly over previous Norton products however, the process is not exactly easy: Symantec recommends that you first boot from the CD and run Norton Disk Doctor on the boot partition, then reboot to the hard drive, then install SystemWorks.
However, other disk-repair utilities such as AlSoft's Disk Warrior and MicroMat's Tech Tool Pro offer even more tools for less money.
If you've been a satisfied long-term user of Symantec or any of SystemWorks' components, the $130 price (less $50 upgrade rebate) is a good value.
#NORTON UTILITIES FOR THE MAC FOR MAC#
There's also Norton AntiVirus 9.0 for Mac Aladdin Spring Cleaning, which scans hard drives for duplicate files and orphaned aliases and Dantz Retrospect Express Backup, a personal version of the professional backup software of the same name. It bundles the 8.0 version of the venerable Norton Utilities, which includes the disk-repair utility Disk Doctor, the defragmentation utility Speed Disk, the deletion tool Wipe Info, the file-recovery tool UnErase, and the recovery duo FileSaver and Volume Recover. Norton's SystemWorks 3.0 is an übersuite.
