The Omni Group’s site for OmniDazzle opens with:
Lost your cursor? Hey, it happens — especially when you’re navigating across the four-million-pixels-and-counting landscape of a 30” Cinema Display.
Would it, then, be wholly unreasonable to assume that OmniDazzle was a cursor locator utility? Apparently, the Omni Mouth says yes:
The moral of the story here is that customers tend to take your own one-line characterization of your app quite literally. That happened with Knox as well. For a long time, our site mostly emphasized how you could create encrypted vaults with Knox, and we got a tremendous backlash with people pointing out — rightly so — that the same thing can be accomplished with Disk Utility. In the current incarnation of the site, we try to focus on Knox’s other management features, backup support, Spotlight control, and so on, while being up front about using the same encrypted disk images as Disk Utility.
Seems to have worked well so far.
