Although there has been some grumbling that Mac Heist is ripping off indie software developers, they entered into the deal of their own volition and it lets users get software at a good price. A portion of the sale also goes to charity. With any luck, Textmate will get unlocked (I have a license at work, but not for my personal laptop).Links to other Cheap or Free Mac Software:
Protip: Put your Apple to Sleep
July 07, 2006 at 11:29 AM | categories: apple | View CommentsWant the fastest way to put your Mac right into a deep, sleepy-bear hibernation-like sleep (no whirling fan, no dialogs, no sound — nuthin’ — just fast, glorious sleep). Just press Command-Option and then hold the Eject button for about 2 seconds and Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. It doesn’t get much faster than that.http://www.apple.com/pro/tips/quicksleep.html
