MacUser has a couple of columns that seem to run regularly: What's M ss ng
(What's Missing), and another one that tries (succeeds?)  to specify the
most current rev of most major packages.  If I remember, What's M ss ng
is topically oriented, so you may have to shuffle through some back
issues in order to look at, say, Graphics packages.

Try MacUser reviews.  Carry a LARGE grain of salt, as your mileage may
vary.  They also have a MiniFinder section near the end, 1 para reviews
of hundreds of packages.  The mouse-dropping ratings they use there may
be rather misleading.
