4D Developer Professional v11.2 SQL - 4D UK
4D has travelled a long way over the past 20 years. Starting life in the late 1980s as a powerful relational database, it spent along time in the shadow of FileMaker. Nowthe application has become as well known in its other role as a suite of tools for rapid development of local and remote programs. But here, too, there are better-known alternatives... read more at MacUserUK |

Fusion 1.0 - VMware
You may need (or want) to run Windows, or other operating systems, alongside Mac OS X, and Parallels Desktop (4 mice) is the best-known of several programs on the market for that purpose. (Full native Windows support, of course, is also available via Apple’s Boot Camp, but it requires you to reboot out of OS X and into Windows.) A new-to-the-Mac player now brings a formidable challenger to the arena, however... read more at Macworld |

Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac 2.0 (Beta) - Microsoft
Since Apple switched over to Intel chips the options for running Windows on your Mac have increased substantially.

MacDrive 7 - Media Four
Since Apple's move to Intel processors and the arrival of technology such as Apple's Boot Camp, which allows you to run Windows natively on your Mac, Macs and PCs have never co-existed so cosily. Not everything is harmonious, however. Because each platform uses different and largely incompatible native disk standards - HFS+ for Mac, NTFS for newer versions of Windows - sharing volumes between them can prove an exercise in frustration. MacDrive is a near-perfect answer to this problem ... read more at MacUserUK |

Parallels Desktop for Mac - Parallels
For many Mac users, running Windows applications is a necessity. Perhaps your employer uses software that’s available only for Windows, or requires use of a Web site that relies on some Windows-only technology. For years, these users haven’t had many options. Microsoft’s Virtual PC was the best choice, but even on the fastest Macs, it provided a less-than-speedy Windows experience... read more at Macworld |

Revolution Studio 2.5 - Runtime Revolution
Revolution Studio 2.5 is the latest version of the well-respected cross-platform software creation tool. Revolution is Dreamcard's big brother. It uses the same clear, comprehensive scripting language, the same tools, the same interface, and it can do all the same things, but it keeps going where Dreamcard leaves off. Revolution Studio is meant for those who want to deliver their creations as finished, standalone applications rather than have them run with a separate player utility..... read more at MacUserUK |

Virtual PC 7 - Microsoft
Macromedia doesn't make Breeze for the Mac. Until a year ago it didn't do a Mac edition of Contribute, either. Neither can you get Microsoft Access or Adobe Premiere Pro, and you can't test your website's compatibility if you only ever use Safari under Mac OS X. Like it or not, there are times when we could all do with an hour or two spent running Windows XP, which is why Virtual PC 7's arrival has been so eagerly awaited.... read more at MacUserUK |
