26 People Used Mac Heist.com Offers A 50% Discount. Exceptional piece of software to improve productivity on OSX. MacHeist is running a 50% off deal for the next few days. The storied history of MacHeist continues with the release of Twitter for Mac in the app store. As you may remember, MacHeist bundle customers were promised early access and a free copy of Tweetie.

Click to expand.Then you obviously don't know anything about MarinerWrite. MW is one of the best textprocessors for the Mac. It fully supports the original saving as PDF - not he crab that Apple provide us with. And it is even one of the best to open and save into RTF keeping the formattings - also better than both OpenOffice and Neooffice! - The only real 'missing' in it is that it can't save as ODF/ODT./QUOTE But the MacHeist web site itself was still a garbled mess. Their brand name is dead so far as I'm concerned.

Click to expand.Yeah. At least with a quick look, I couldn't even figure out how to tell what was in the 'deal'. I later figured out that if I let the annoying ad video run (I had aborted it almost imediately the first time I clicked there), it eventually goes through a long-winded ad for each of them. Maybe there is a simple list somewhere, but I didn't find it. (I might also have missed things because the site is one of those that messes up pretty badly if you use large fonts. After eventually listening to the darned ad video, I couldn't think of any of those apps that seemed worth the cost. (Ain't nothing 'free'; the cost here seems to be a combination of the time to download and check them out, plus the cost of giving them an email address - of course that would be a sneakemail one, but still).

I did glance at MarinerWrite a little longer than most of the others, but aside from the fact that it is only conditionally in the bundle, the support forum for it looks discouraging. Not much activity on the forum at all, and a significant fraction of what is there seems to center around complaints that the updated version allegedly promissed in 2005 (and then again about every year since) hasn't shown up yet. Click to expand.I think the reason that there is very little activity on the forum is because there aren't that many problems with MW: I find it to be one of the most non-problematic textprocessors ever made for the Mac.

I've been using it since some time back to the ver. 1.5 or there about, and have always been using it as my secondary textprocessor for anything smaller works. My main textprocessor is and has been NisusWriter since ver. 3.3.1European through ver. 4.x, 5.x, 6.x and now the NWPro, - but MarinerWrite has always been placed next to NW/NWP - first in the classic Controlstrip and now in the dock.

Click to expand.Just now updated to work with Rosetta? At about the time I'm more like looking to phase out those things that require Rosetta?

That doesn't encourage me much. I've already got a host of word processors on this machine. Open Office, iWork (I don't actually use that much, but it as only $41 if I bought it with the new machine, so I did).

I had NeoOffice on my prior machine, but decided I very minorly preferred OO for now. I've also got a copy of MS Ofice, but haven't yet moved it from my old machine to here; not sure that I will.

I don't actually use word processors much at all. I mostly use text editors. For 'serious' work I use LaTeX.

I've probably spent more time fiddling with word processors to decide whether I like them than I've spent actually using them. (And I swear I've spent more time helping other people with them than using them myself. Just because I've never once used a particular product doesn't seem to keep some people from expecting me to help them with it - sigh.) I'm not hearing anything that makes me real excited about jumping on this one.

Requiring Roseta and not supporting ODF are two pretty big negatives for me. I get stuff in ODF regularly. And based on reading the forums, counting on some feature promissed for a future version 'real soon now' is not something I'll do.

They have all but officially announced that they won't be doing much work on the word processor through at least the first quarter of next year.
