Before Safari on Windows, iAppblog looked terrible, but now with Safari 3 Beta on Windows, iAppblog looks just as great as it does on the Macintosh. This does does not mean that youshould all run out to your local computer store and pickup a Windows Vista computer, but it does help those who are using XP or Vista view iAppblog to its fullest.

iAppblog now looks great?Ǭ†amazing on both a pc or mac with Safari!

As planned, the Ultimate Mac App Giveaway, which was run, here, on iAppblog since May 14. We had tons of great Mac Application, which were generously donated by their developer. We also had some donations to iAppblog, and we thank those who donated. Remember though, you can always donate to iAppblog. Just on the ChipIn Widget in the Sidebar below the Mailing List signup. Your donations are really appreciated, and we will make sure to put them to good use.

And, now for the winners. To pick the winners, I drew the numbers with the True Random Number Service, provided by Random.org. Then I matched the numbers up with the number in the database.

So, I bet everyone wants to know who the winners are. I have not included their last names, because iAppblog does not have a privacy policy, and it has been requested not to share the last names. In fifth place, Jennn. In forth place, Michael. In third place, Adam. In second place, Niklas. And the iAppblog Ultimate Mac App Giveaway winner for 2007 is Matthew.

Thanks to everyone who participated, but, it is not over, we will continue to have giveaways for everyone on the mailing list, so signup, and hopefully, you will win. To sign up, just enter your name and email in the Mailing List form in the sidebar.

Once again, thanks to all the developers who donated software licenses and to everyone who registered, donated and won.

Note to winners: I have sent you all the licenses I have, please expect the developers to send you your licenses this week, and into next week.

Undercover is a great app/service that tracks and recovers stolen macs. I believe it is an essential service for all. Click Here, to read a great recovery story that recovered a mans macbook pro.

Taken From the Orbicule Website: “Undercover is capable of recovering any stolen Macintosh. It works by transmitting the internet location of the stolen Mac, and by sending screenshots, in order to easily locate the Mac. We will then work with local police and/or law enforcement to recover the stolen Mac. If things go wrong, Undercover switches to plan B and simulates a hardware failure, forcing the thief (or someone who bought the Mac) to return it to an authorized reseller. To alert the reseller, Undercover will start displaying full-screen messages and it will shout that the Mac has been stolen.”
