[MacOS] MacUpdate Launched Holiday App Bundle for $49
Yeah, it was overdue already. The guys over at MacUpdate just launched their pre-chrismas holiday app bundle. For US$49 you will get:
- Data Rescue 3 (instead of US$99)
One of the best data recovery tool for the Mac - Espresso 2 (instead of US$75)
One of the best CSS, HTML, XML, JavsScript editing tools around - TotalFinder (instead of US$18)
The Must-have tool, since Apple’s finder is really still total crap - TotalSpaces (instead of US$15)
brings eventually back the grid-style spaces to OS X 10.7 and 10.8 - Snapz Pro X 2.5 (instead of US$69)
Screenshots and video capturing made as easy as possible - Mac DVDRipper Pro 4 (instead of US$25)
Copying, Ripping and Converting DVDs made easy, in times of MacBookAirs this tool looks vintage to me ;-) - PopChar X 6 (instead of US$38)
Accessing special font characters made easy, usable scenarios really unknown to me - MoneyWell 2 (instead of US$50)
some finance manager, I would never use ;-) - Swift Publisher 3 (instead of US$30)
never heard of that one, but sounds interesting - RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 (instead of US$30)
Sim Game in Theme Park style. For those of you who have enuff time for games ;-) - Company of Heroes (instead of US$30)
never heard of that one, sounds like the typical military strategy game
Anyway: the bundle makes sense at least for the TotalFinder, DataRescue, TotalSpaces and Snapz Pro. Means you can’t do anything wrong by buying it. And who knows, probably PopChar, MoneyWell and Swift Publisher might turn out to be useful aswell. The first 12,000 buyers will get Live Interior 3D for free on top (saves you another US$129)…

A free 10 days trial version is available thru their website. The full retail version costs about US$ 39.95 or €29.95.
[iPhone] ThunderSt0rm is Fake – Don’t Install
According to TheBigBoss.org two tools have appeared on the net:
- ThunderSt0rm and
- TurboSn0w
Both of them are fakes and don’t jailbreak the iPhone, the iPod Touch, nor the iPad, but harm your system and delete iTunes files. Thus leaving you with broken installations.
[Apple] Certified Apps Only As Of Mac OS X 10.7?
According to Rixstep.com Apple plans to set up an App Store starting with the introduction of Mac OS X 10.7.
Developers planning on marketing software for 10.7 will submit their products to the App Store as iPhone and now iPad developers have already done. 10.7 will have kernel support for (‘insistence on’) binaries signed with Apple’s root certificate.
No software will be able to run on Mac OS X 10.7 without being approved and signed by Apple, Inc.
According to MacStories.net allegedly Steve Jobs has answered a direct request send to him by Fernando Valente of Chiaro Software. Valente asked him:
There’s a rumor saying there will be a Mac App Store and no software without authorization from Apple will run on Mac OS X. Is that true)
According to the mail Steve Jobs (or someone managing his email account) simply answered:
Nope.
Anyway: you cannot be sure what his answer specifically means. Probably we’re gonna need jailbreaks for Mac OS X in the near future anyhow…

[MacOS] Snow Leopard 10.6.2 Kernel Patched for Intel Atom Support
Teateam a russian speaking Mac OS developer binary patched the latest Mac OS X 10.6.2 Mach Kernel to eventually reenable support for Intel Atom CPUs. His kernel seems to be running well in 32bit and in 64bit mode. Atom CPUs are now reported as Intel Core Solo or Core Duo.
The patch seems only to consist of modifying a couple of (simply) assembler instructions to permanently set the CPU type. In the meantime Apple has released kernel sources and people are working on adding Atom CPU support in a proper manner.
Congrats Teamteam. That’s what Ilfak made IDA for ;-)

[MacOS] 10.6.2 Update Released – Intel Atoms Killed
Apple’s 10.6.2 update closes lots of security holes that could be used to compromise systems. Safari, iWork, iLife, Aperture, Final Cut Studio, and some other apps are rumored to be working more reliable after updating.
Apple pwns back
For OSX86 users on netbooks this update is far away from being recommended at the moment. The update now has proved what has been rumored some days ago: Intel Atom support has definitely been removed from the kernel.
Thus rendering Intel Atom based netbooks non working. Netbooks will not boot after updating as the following video by Stellarola shows. It shows the typical behaviour if the CPU is not supported by the kernel, OS X will instantly reset the system.
