OK, I'm going to set about writing a fair comparison article on the main go
software out there to date. Is there anything I'm missing outside of:

Goban
By reviewing Goban (assuming you mean the OS X program 'Sente Goban') you enter the territory of a lot of free programs/server clients, programs like glGo, CGoban, CGoban 2, qGo, Drago etc.

MasterGo
SmartGo
MoyoGo
Perhaps you should also include Kombilo, it's free and does pattern matching, an important feature of these three programs.

Many Faces of Go
GoGoD
AFAIK (I don't own a copy) GoGoD is not actually software, but a cd with a bunch of games, background information and a few utilities of which they have only written the SGF editor, the rest is third party software. This means it will be hard to compare 'GoGoD' to software, feature-wise.

Go++
BiGo

I want to review stuff that runs on the current Mac and Windows OS.

You said you only want to review commercial software with many features for now, I can understand that if I look at the free programs I have to use to get all the features I want ;) That is: GoGrinder for problems, Kombilo for pattern search, gobase.org for pattern search, qGo for editing, glGo for IGS, CGoban 2 for KGS and uligo for testing if I remembered a pro game well.
