poker donkeys

For some reason i decided to try out poker software, not sure why.
For a long while i didnt think i would be using any poker software, but for analyzing ones own games, and looking up stats for other players these kinds of tools will be usefull.

There are 3 programs that i know of and which has been around a while.
They are Poker Office, Poker Tracker and Holdem Manager.
I guess theres dozen other programs as well

Im using a trial version of Poker Tracker 3 now, and think its quite ok.
Of course there are a few limitations since its just a 60 days trial version, but i do actully consider buying it.Holdem Manager, has a 15 day trial which i will test out soon.

Poker Office 5 costs $99/yr , but you can get it for free if you sign up at a pokersite from the list at their site.
Holdem Managers small stakes version costs $55, and can also be aquired for free if you want to sign up for a pokersite from the list at their site.
Poker Tracker 3 costs $89.99, but they doesnt have the possibilty for getting it for free.
