You can really tell Christmas is near. In less than a week, a second great software bundle has surfaced and I think this one is at least as good as (if not better than) the one at MacUpdate. This one is offered by a co-op of great independent Mac developers. Here's what's in the bundle:
Delicious Library , Acorn 2, MarsEdit 3, Radioshift, SousChef and Sound Studio 4.
Of these six titles, I use three: Delicious Library for home inventory, SousChef for helping in the kitchen and my favorite, Acorn, for drawing and editing images. I highly recommend Acorn. It is, by far, the easiest drawing and image editor I've ever used. I think it is the "Mac Paint" of our day and an application I could be easily tricked into believing it was written by Apple if I didn't know better. The folks at Flying Meat have figured out a way to deliver most of Photoshop's editing and drawing features in a package designed and priced for mere mortals. I think it is absolutely worth the regular $50 price tag, but when it's bundled with these other great titles, buying it is an absolute no-brainer.
Unlike the MacUpdate bundle I posted a couple of days ago, this indie package is sold by the software developers themselves. There's no middle-man taking a cut from the already outrageously low price.
