Please place items in chronological order. Limit description to one sentence, using the concise style shown below, and start with the date (using our preferred format of "March 6, 2010").

    • Until December 21, 2011: MUPromo.com from MacUpdate including such heavyweights as Techtool Pro (with a disc image to make it bootable), email app PostBox 3 and Mac DVDRipper Pro. $50 buys these and more.
  • October 20, 2011: Quick Tip # 5: Beware fake updaters for software which may pop up with a familiar logo, e.g. after clicking a video in social media. If in doubt, don't give it your password! Go to the official site (such as adobe.com) and check there for updates.
  • October 14, 2011: Quick Tip # 4: in Address Book, set up a Smart Group of all cards that are not in another group, to help you classify new contacts. Smart Groups are also the way to search a specific field.
