maccleaner_04

A short while ago the latest version of the Mac tool CleanMyMac 2 was released and it is said to be even more powerful than the previous version. I read about it and decided to check it out. I went on their website and downloaded the Trial Version. I have to admit even though I heard about the pre-version before I have never used it. The main reason being that I know how to delete and tweak my system. Though Friends and Family always complain about it and make me …

kickstarter_app_15-300x275

The crowd funding platform Kickstarter finally goes Mobile. They just launched an iPhone/iPod Touch
version in the App-Store. Sorry, no Android App in sight yet but I am sure they working on it.

ATEN_CS1784A-300x275

A While back I wrote a small post how to Share a single Keyboard and Mouse
across multiple PC’s with different OS and while checking some of my older
post’s I thought it would be a good idea to give you some heads up about it.
I am certain that many computer enthusiasm like myself face the very same
issue. I for one like a clean workstation specially when having 5-6 Screens
around you that take most of the space.

parallels_support_bad

The other day I received an email from Parallels Inc. informing me about an upgrade deal to their new
Version of “Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac“. Yesterday I had a few minutes spare and decided to order it.
Being a Parallels Customer / Beta Tester for many years I was looking forward to the upgrade.
It was around 7:00am when I placed the order in the online shop and it went through the process swiftly
until I get to the final page informing me I can view the Invoice by clicking on the Button. Something …

OS X Lion new privacy feature: Full System Encryption – finally!

I have been using 3rd Party Disk-Encryption tools for a long time. I believe everyone who cares about
his personal data should have some sort of encryption software installed. Remember the story about my
friend who forgot his Laptop at the Airport? There are many reasons why you should encrypt your personal
data but as always these tools are not straight forward out of the box and I do understand that non-technical
person have no intention of sitting down for hours trying to understanding the means and different
encryption types and all the technical jargon with it.
For OS X 10.7 “Lion” User this has just …
