These pages describe some of my favorite programs (of course they are the Mac
versions) and why I like them. The newer programs are the latest software designed
for Mac OS X. There is also some obsolete software and some software which has been
around a while but has been updated for newer versions of the Mac OS (the last
column below indicates which OS the program requires).
