Must Have Mac Wares

Mon, 01/08/2007 - 10:45 — kebernet

Remote Buddy is awesome. It is everything Front Row isn't, plus it works with the Wiimote. Totally Rules. Well worth the 10 euros. Now I just wish there was a quick way to switch the bluetooth pairing of the Wiimote between the Mac and the Wii.

Perian is a rollup if 3vix, DivX XviD and AC3 codecs for Quicktime. Even better, it is less apt to make Front Row crash than the "real" versions. Don't use the AC3 support, though. Get the Cod3r A52/AC3 codec.

Ok, I realize I am spamming the comments at this point, but I think both TotSP readers will be alright with that ;).

Another thing that is mega cool with the Mac, that I just discovered today, is that you can link your Google Calendar with iCal. Create a gCal event, it shows up in iCal - nice.
