Lameduck Challenge
Today only, Codeweavers is giving away all of their software titles for free. Why? Because gas dropped to below an average of $2.79 a gallon, that’s why.
Juno Digital Copy is Blogtastic!
One of the things announced at MacWorld that excited me was Fox’s digital copy. Applications like Handbrake and Mac the Ripper have enabled people to copy DVDs to their hard drives for years.
