Welcome to Mrs. Wizard's GEMS area! Frequently, software applications are evaluated and only the best of the best is added to this website. A Gem must pass the same strict tests a Tiny Treasure must pass, but without the size restriction. A Gem might be freeware or shareware. It must be able to work well with Windows XP. As I test each Gem and update the review, I will certainly let you know how they are with Vista and will make special notations if they are still great but not available for Vista yet.
If you are using a modem to connect to the Internet, the download time could be substantial, but definitely worth it. These Gems have been tested personally by Mrs. Wizard. It doesn't take much to try her patience. Any software qualifying as a Gem must be easy to install and use, and (most important) NOT gum up the system in any way.
