I really take issue with their contention that using a background daemon to load and auto-activate fonts, as FontAgent Pro and FontExplorer X do, is somehow inferior to keeping a full-blown app open at all times, a la Suitcase. I'd say the daemon is superior: it doesn't get in your way, there's no easy way to accidentally kill it off, and both FAP and FEX are far more reliable than Suitcase has been.
