| Re: Tiger's Spotlight vs. LaunchBar I had this same argument with a friend of mine about this same issue, he was one of the lucky ones that received his Tiger last week.
From what I saw, the reason why Launchbar is faster than Spotlight is because ...
1. Spotlight looks through ever type of file, document, and apps. For instance if you were looking for the word "porn", it'll search your entire computer for the one word and show where and what type of file that word is mention. Now that's something Launchbar won't do.
2. This the one that actually bugs me, so if I get flamed, whatever. As soon as you start typing it starts it's search. For instance when I type the letter "p" for porn, it'll search the entire computer for anything that matches "p" and so on as I start typing the rest of the word out.
I don't think Launchbar has that type of power search like Spotlight. Now if I wanted to quickly open an app then I would use Launchbar over Spotlight. |
