What would you like to see on Impulse?
Stardock Forums
Corel's full line of award-winning applications are on Impulse. What sorts of other office applications would you like to see?
For what it's worth, I'd like to see a Classic Menu extension for the MS Office suite.
Also, I'd like to see the OSS apps listed if for no other reason than on a new PC rebuild they'd be installed easily. How about Firefox, Thunderbird, OpenOffice, etc.
I'd also like to see apps like CCleaner and some antivirus like AVG.
AVG is on Impulse.
I would like to see:
Maybe some apps from Intuit, Dragon Natural speaking, Trend Micro, and Acronis.
Since Impulse is supposed to have not just for-pay material (why you changed the "store" tab to "explore"), what about hosting Open Office, Blender, GIMP, InkScape, and other tools as long as you can adhere to the GNU and other appropriate licenses?
As for for-pay, Adobe CS4 would be useful, though expensive. Bryce, Xara, Truespace. Umm, the reputable spyware programs like Lavasoft, Spybot, SuperAntiSpyware. PowerDVD (as an alternative). I can think of scads more but that would turn you into Download.com.
Oh, an addendum. It's not an application, but for pity's sake get Evochron and Eschalon on there. Two of the best Indy games out there rivaling Mr. Robot for quality.
I couldn't have came up with a better list myself!
Although i would see about integrating student deals into this somehow, i know adobe has a system that gives worthwhile discounts to any person in full time education (used it to get CS3 
) and you can get the full set of office applications for less than 'home and student' from RM's basement (adobe CS4 is there aswell) so im guessing it is economically viable (or the crunch is just about to hit Adobe, microsoft and RM) if you talk the right way
And if openoffice etc. are put on impulse then i won't need to bother googling it everytime i rebuild my pc
Wholeheartedly agree with SirBedwyr regarding for-pay and free software.
That being said,
I would like to see
Micro$oft Office
Avira
Avast!
Lavasoft
Adobe CS4
actually, basically all the basic softwares needed to get our pcs up and running after a fresh install.
how about some development enviroments. i know studio is a ms ap but there are lots of others out there that may be worthwhile to hobbiest and beginners.
and a nice DB application. maybe a house like FileMaker would be interested.
Mac Drive. It's a program I want to get, and digitally, but I don't want to run into problems activating it when I reformat. I dual-boot my mac, and not being able to read/write to the mac partition is a pain.
Edit: Also, since you have WinDVD 9, it'd be cool if you could get the new version, 2010 Pro on here. 9 is going for $60 elsewhere, and I'd like to get a player, but if I'm dropping the cash, I'd like the new one. In that thought, does Impulse have discounts for upgrading to new versions of software?
i would like a good math add-in for ms office 2010, they had the free ms math add-in for 2007 which worked nicely, but dosn't work with 2010 yet..
