<div>I'm trying out various Spotlight addons or alternatives and
haven't settled on any yet [Laserlight and Spotinside are free] and
found this discussion at ATPM with three other alternatives
mentioned...not sure actually that I like any of the 5 at first blush,
but I haven't given each a fair long trial = I like Laserlight's speed
but it's limited, Spotinside takes longer but is thorough [I
think]</div>

MoRU seems pretty capable though (trying it out now), and is the
cheapest-the others are $20 each. The pre-built search templates in
Moru seem pretty useful, and not just a gimmick (Office files, iTunes
music, etc.)<br>

most like about MoRU is that you can perform tasks against the search
result. Spotlight searches provide the result, but you can't do
anything from the Spotlight window-it is a read-only function. MoRU, I
can delete, move files, rename, etc.<br>
So, all the power of Spotlight,<i> plus</i> the ability to actually do
some file maintenance with the results.</font></blockquote>
