Although Chainsaw might be a fabulous piece of software, the term "chainsaw" is not widely used as this article contends. Also, this is not really encyclopedic in nature.
- Delete - *sniff* smells like vanity. I can't tell if it actually is or not, but it's certainly not notable. (Especially as most good compression software provides this functionality.) Aerion//talk 06:02, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Smacks of vanity. DeweyQ 19:13, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. As Aerion said, most good compression software provide this functionality. Those are notable. This is not. Nestea 22:47, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. The term is data striping and that article could mention some examples. This, however, is an advert for a non-notable program. Gazpacho 05:50, 9 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. People in alt.comp.freeware voted it as Pricelessware in 2004 and several other years, so it is somewhat notable. -Hapsiainen 22:58, May 13, 2005 (UTC)
