Can't live without it at least. It seems a bit heavy on the memory
usage though.

Nowadays I rarely play my hunter and AutoBar and PetFu have been
enough for pet happiness and feeding.

I don't actually like the exp bar or the casting bars.
But the button bars are the best I've found and can be customized
exactly how I like them.

I started out with Titan, went to Fubar, now back on Titan..

Fu was ok, but something in amongst all the adons I use made WoW
actually crash to the desktop (and thats HARD on a Mac). Removed fuBar
and the crash stopped.
