DssW Power Manager 3 works well with Mac OS X 10.6, aka Snow Leopard.
As with all significant Mac OS X upgrades, we recommend you install a fresh copy of Power Manager after upgrading. This ensures all required files are available and untouched by the upgrade process.

With the latest update of Power Manager 3, Mac OS X 10.3.9 is no longer supported. The engineering effort required to support Mac OS X 10.3.9, combined with the dwindling number of Panther users, made the decision easy for us.
Power Manager 3.7.3 and later require Mac OS X 10.4. We recommend users upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5, or later, for the best experience.
A Little History
Mac OS X 10.3 was the first version of Mac OS X that could support Power Manager’s functionality. We published Power Manager v3.0 for Mac OS X in August 2005. So today is sad day, but one recalling four years of happy memories.
Power Manager 3 continues to support three generations of Mac OS X: Tiger (10.4), Leopard (10.5), and Snow Leopard (10.6).

Today, we launched DssW Power Manager 3.7.3 for Mac OS X. This is a minor update to our core energy saving solution.
The update is recommended for all users of Power Manager, but not essential.
Power Manager 3.7.3 introduces a new implementation of our Login Window notification mechanism. This update also hands over more responsibility to launchd for managing our background agents and daemons. This change should result in increased stability, even when errors occur.
With this latest release, we have discontinued support for Mac OS X 10.3.9, aka Panther.
Power Manager 3.7.3 works well with Mac OS X 10.6, aka Snow Leopard.
