Default New Adobe Acrobat reader - should I install?


Anyone tried it?


Even worse then the previous version. Slower, less convenient
controls, more eye candy, updater that constantly tries to connect to
Adobe website and cannot be muted (you can try to, but it will be
reinstaller on the next launch of Reader) ...

I gave up on Adobe Reader and recently found a nice replacement -
Apparition:
http://ccxvii.net/apparition/ (main page)
http://ccxvii.net/apparition/download/ (download)

No installer, ultra fast, minimalistic interface - only PDF document
displayed (use mouse and keyboard to navigate).
