New Macs need new software. If you’re familiar with the app Bodega, you can save some serious cash through a sweet deal. Mac App Deals reveals that if you purchase 1Password, Sandvox, Cockpit, MoneyWell, Clean my Mac, Brush Pilot, Mac DVDRipper Pro, or My Living Desktop, you’ll get half of your purchase through Bodega’s storefront.
1Password and Brush Pilot would be the “must haves” on my list.

Yesterday Apple launched new iMacs, a new Mac Pro, a new Cinema Display and…a Battery Charger. Yes, it was a great day. And yes, many “pro” users still don’t know whether they should out their works in the hands of a Mac Pro beast or just go with an iMac by choosing the highest configuration. I mean, those are powerful machines, right?
Let Marco Arment tell you what you should do.
Courtesy of 9to5mac, a video with some first impressions of the new “magical” device from Apple. It looks good. But it’ll look even better next to my new iMac in a few weeks.
If you’re a Things user on Mac OS X, I bet that you always wanted to be able to quickly link its database to your Finder. Not just clippings - which work great - but entire standard folders linked inside Things.app. Designers, developers, users that have to deal with a large amount of files on a daily basis could really use such a feature.
Well folks, that’s exactly what a 3rd party application called Things Folders does.
Here’s one of those rumors you wake up in the morning with and can’t stop thinking about for the whole day. It’s a rumor, so be careful with the excitement.
Mac4ever reports that iLife ‘11 will be released on August 7th with a huge set of new features including a “mistery new application”, full 64-bit support and MobileMe integration.
- ILife ‘11 will be sold for $79
- Release Date of 08/07/2010
- All applications will be 64-bit
- Improvements in iPhoto faces & places
- Improving the integration of social networks
- IWeb will be totally renewed
- New application (mystery!)
- Disappearance of iDVD
- MobileMe gallery in beta (with faces & places)
Should we believe that? Sure some options sound very likely. As MacRumors also points out, the latest version of iLife (‘09) was announced at Macworld SF 2009. So, I guess it’s time for a brand new shiny version.
A few hours ago Apple released an update for Mac OS X Server, which reaches version 10.6.4 Update 1.1. Check out the full changelog after the break.
Unless you’ve been living under a giant rock for the past - well - few years, you should know that Firefox 4.0 is coming. A major new version of Mozilla’s browser with redesigned interface, new addon manager, new engine, lots of improvements and tweaks. Mozilla die-hard fans look at it as the ultimate program coming to a computer near them. We Mac users just think about how Mozilla badly screwed up with the UI on OS X in the past and wait with curious eyes for some stable version to actually ship.
Now, we have a nightly version (as usual, it’s dubbed Minefield) with the much-discussed tabs-on-top available for testing. You can also download a 64-bit enabled build for Snow Leopard.
So, how about these tabs?
You’d think if you were going to make the attempt to sell Mac users a security product they didn’t want in the first place, you’d at least support their web browser of choice. Seriously McAfee? I might be a little rash, but I’m not wasting a gig of memory and 150 MB of hard drive space for this, especially after seeing how they treat Windows computers.

We’re assuming at least one of our lovely readers has helped Apple reach new record breaking levels with all those Macs selling like hotcakes, and we wouldn’t be surprised if you were in need of a tote to carry your precious machine. Gizmodo reports that Timbuk2 is having one helluva sale right now if you’re interested in some quality bags, so we suggest you check out their (up to) 60% off promo-a-day for the opportunity to save some bucks and score some sweet shwag.
