Macupdate has a great deal on Mac Software. They have bundled 11 apps worth $381 into 1 price, $49. Some of these programs themselves sell for more than the total package price. Some notable apps:
- 1Password (normally $39) – This is a must for password management on a mac. (I will post later why this is so important for everyone to be doing
- Parallels (normally $79) – This allows you to run Windows on you mac. Their latest update is amazing. (you will need a Windows license).
- TechTool Pro (normally $99) – This allows you to repair/fix computer problems with your computer or hard drives
- 2 Apps to help rip and convert DVD Movies
- Plus 8 more really nice Apps
I probably won’t be getting this since I bought the apps I want, already, (and paid the list price, wish bundle was available then). If you don’t own these programs, I really recommend it. They are worth the price.

Have you ever wanted to purchase a product from Apple but worried that they might be releasing a new update to the product you want, that will render your update out of date and “not cool” anymore? I just talked to a friend earlier this week who bought an iPad just a few weeks ago, and now wishes he would have waited. While you can’t ever be totally sure of the best time to buy, here is a great resource to help.
Mac Rumors – Buyers Guide
I find this really helpful, because they analyze Apple’s previous release cycle and upcoming rumors about when they might be releasing a new product, and suggest whether this is a good time to buy, or maybe you should wait, because updates are coming soon.
Check it out next time you are interested in buying a Mac or iPod, to save yourself some frustration in the future.

Today, Apple announced their 2nd version of the iPad. They did a lot of cool things in their upgrade, and you can read all about it on their site. A few quick highlights
- 2 Video Cameras (front/back) and Photo Booth, FaceTime and iMovie Apps
- Dual Core Processor (Just means its really fast!)
- 33% Thinner
- Works on Verizon/AT&T
- Cool New Cover Idea
The only problem is, I was planning on waiting before getting one, but I think I maybe changing my mind. How bout you? Anyone else looking at getting an iPad2 or are you going to get a XOOM, or any tablet?
