Mac Apps

Here's an update of my Powermac G3. today it's about the apps.

Yesterday, I decided to work the whole day using the Mac. Ok, this was primarily, for website update (My current job is to configure a Drupal site). After that day, the power mac is slow, but wait, for web browsing, emailing and chatting, it's ok.

I also look at some tiny Apps, you could run on Panther. Here is the complete list of installed Mac Apps :

Internet

  • Adium (Multiprotocol Instant Messaging),
  • Camino (regret that is not compatible with Firefox, and crashes rather easily),
  • Colloquy (IRC client, seems really slow),
  • Cyberduck (FTP client),
  • Firefox (Web Browser),
  • Skype (Non standard VoIP App)
  • Thunderbird (Mail deosn't seems to work anymore),
  • Transmission (Nice bitTorrent client)

Multimedia

Image

  • iPhoto (even it's really way too slow)
  • the Gimp (open source Photoshop like)
  • Jalbum (a website gallery builder)

Text

  • Smultron (nice little texte editor)
  • Freemind (a mind mapping tool in Java)
  • NeoOffice (OpenOffice for Mac, still heavy to run)

System

  • Onyx (Maintenance app)
  • Tomtom Home (Yes I got a Tomtom 510 GPS).

In test

  • TextWrangler (another text editor.. have to choose between the 2),
  • Xchat Aqua (known on linux and windows.. let's try it on OSX !)
