   I was wondering if you ever have applications and games for MAC O/S.

   It's pretty rare cardlady, but it does happen once in a blue moon. We actually had a dual Windows/Mac giveaway on the 5th, the first I can remember. What Mac users here often do is wait for a giveaway that offers a registration key. As you may know, most of the time the software registers automatically through a program that GOTD "wraps" around the software's installer. But some developers prefer that GOTD give out a special registration key. The advantage there is that you can go to the developers webpage and see if they have a Mac demo version. You can download that and, usually, the key will work on it, too.

   But it's slim pickings for Mac users here. Here's one free source of Mac stuff that HappyPerson was nice enough to post recently:

   This is a whole user group dedicated to free Mac software:

   http://www.freesmug.org/

   Here's an interesting site I found for maintenance and troubleshooting OS X that also has links to the maintenance software he recommends and here's a link to a list of 170 software's from the same guy, who's an attorney who uses Mac:

   And here's a Mac portable software site. I love portables not only because they're small, but more because they're often self contained and, therefore, have practically no chance of causing software conflicts:

   If you already know about all these, I apologize.

   I'm not a game guru, but I'll bet our game people can recommend 100s of Mac games.

   Of course, you're more than welcome to come here and talk about Mac issues. Some of us have some experience, though mine's pretty old. I used to be pretty decent on MACs, but that was almost back before electriciy. :)

   Hi Cardlady, here are some more MAC freeware sites for your benefit:

   Note - I have not checked out all of these sites, but for the few that I did review, they seem to be rich with free MAC software programs. I found them via Yahoo, by putting the phrase "MAC Freeware" in the search box. When I did this, a long list of MAC freeware sites popped up. I hope you find these links useful.

   1. MAC Freeware.

   2. MACAPPER.

   3. MAC.SOFOTEX.

   4. THRIFTMAC.

   5. XFREEWARE.

   6. APPDONKEY.

   7. FREEMACWARE.

   8. MAC-FREEWARE-SOFTWARE112.

   9. DOWNLOADATOZ.

   For this one, you may need to type the word "freeware" in the website's search box to find actual mac freeware, versus shareware, etc.

   10. MAC-GAMES-AND-MORE.
