I suggest that you give it a chance. 
Having seen it run, I can say that it quite fast, stable and 
has a nice mixture of functions. 
Like Yudit, it is especially useful to the person who has 
documents in several languages coming in and out of 
her machine. 
Haven't heard nightmare tales about JAVA-based apps, 
I am wondering if getting the thing to run properly is 
difficult. If it is not too bad, I would say this is a very 
handsome program.
