There was once a time when a man could be proud to be a Windows user and envied no man. That time passed on March 24, 2001 when the first edition of Mac OSX was released. Read more about my disappointment after the break.

Along the same lines as VLC, Perian allows all sorts of video formats to play in Quicktime itself, which is a little more convenient than having to launch VLC.  Perian installs as a System Preferences pane, and so has a very small footprint.  This is one of the first things I install on any new Mac.

I can’t remember the last time I had a video file that actually played correctly in Windows Media Player. That’s the reason I turned to VLC player, which will play pretty much anything you can throw at it right out of the box. If you want to find out more, read on after the jump.

Hi everyone (someone?),
I’m the new writer.  Hopefully, I will bring some humor and excitement to the site.  I will mostly be posting about Mac programs and news, but I will also post about other stuff since Evan can sometimes be rather lacking in factual information.  I’m glad to be aboard and hope to start writing soon.

If you’re anything like me then you have way to many programs in your start menu. My beef with the start menu is how long it takes to find a program, having to click 3 or 4 times. Now with Launchy you wont have to click at all. If you want to learn more read on after the jump.
