MacUpdate promo again

There is a new MacUpdate promo. The question is again whether I will go for it or not. All apps are now unlocked, so it is a good, especially with the current Euro/dollar rate. So let’s have a look at the apps in the bundle.

• Parallels Desktop - personally I have no need for windows and futhermore I am still on a PowerPC. However it might be something for my son in the future on his Intel-iMac. But then I have to buy Windows, what horror;
• BannerZest - Flash presentation software, might be interesting. However currently I just use Flickr;
• Sound Studio - for audio recording and editing. It sounds like a solid app, however I do not have a real need at the moment;
• Leap - another Spotlight interface, I have to see this;
• DVDRemaster pro - copying DVD’s sounds interesting, although I never wanted to do that;
• MenuCalendarClock - I am not a big iCal user;
• Hazel - an automatic housekeeper? For the few files that I create?
• StoryMill - multi-level writing sounds interesting. I am not a write, but could this approach be used for research as well?
• Art Text - I do make flyers from time to time, but usually I do not like fancy Text Art;
• Typinator - hmmm, do not really need that;

So all in all there are some interesting applicatiojns, there is however not a real need for me to get any one of these. So I will pass on this offer.
