    Hi, thank you for mentoning 3 of our extensions :) since October we’ve developed more extensions that truly deserve to be in the list, such as Magento Booster, which increases Magento performance significantly: http://www.aitoc.com/en/magento_booster.html
    and Product Matrix, which enables Admin to create and edit configurable products with two attributes in a convenient matrix form, where Admin can specify configuration for each simple associated product: http://www.aitoc.com/en/magentomods_product_matrix.html
