Bundle Love

May 28th, 2009 Posted in Software | one comment »

I have a confession to make.  I’m a Mac bundle addict.  Yup.  Whenever MacHeist or MacUpdate has a new bundle for sale I feel like I’ve one the lottery.  Okay, maybe not a huge lottery, but at least the payoff is guaranteed.  I think I’ve only passed on a bundle once, and that was because I already had all the programs included in it.  Sadly, there’s no support group for my addiction.

I’m not sure how many of my readers are Mac users, but that’s not going to stop me from telling you about the bundle MacUpdate has going right now.   13 apps for $49.99. That’s 11 apps plus 2 more if you’re one of the first 15,000 buyers.  Yay!  One of those apps, Parallels, is $79 by itself.

I was a big Parallels fan when I first made the switch from Mac to PC, because I wasn’t ready to give up all my Windows apps.  Eventually I stopped using it altogether…until yesterday when I had a sudden urge to play an old PC game.  My first thought was that I should upgrade Parallels to the latest version, but then I decided 3.0 was good enough for the amount of times I’ll actually use it.  So I was happy to see 4.0 included in the bundle released today.  (It’s like they read my mind!)

So, if you’re curious about what else is contained in the bundle, here’s a pretty, flashy image you can click on:
