TechTool Protogo - 1.0.3
Do you have an old iPod lying around? Or perhaps a small portable hard drive or flash drive? Why not turn it into the ultimate Macintosh diagnostic, repair, and maintenance tool? With TechTool Protogo it’s easy. Protogo allows you to quickly create a bootable diagnostic device that contains Micromat’s most powerful tools as well as any of your own utilities you may wish to install. You can then use this device to boot, check, maintain, and repair Macintosh computers as needed. Like our award-winning product, TechTool Protege, you will have a device that allows you to carry all the tools you’ll need in your shirt pocket. But unlike Protege, you’ll have plenty of space left over for a multitude of additional utilities as well as ample drive space when you need to recover data.

TopXNotes iPod - 1.2.1
TopXNotes began as a brand new twist on that old favorite, the old Apple Notepad, but TopXNotes has evolved to be much, much more. TopXNotes has all the basic functionality of a word processor… including choice of fonts, style, and colors. TopXNotes’s unique features include MultiView, the ability to view many notes at once and the accompanying MultiView Sliding Toolbar that keeps text buttons always above where you type.
TopXNotes also features the NoteOrganizer, an advanced table of contents with categories and groups you define based on your information. TopXNotes’s most popular benefit is QuickNotes, the ability to access your key notes instantly from the desktop from a menu in a floating toolbar or from the same menu in the dock. TopXNotes also features automatic backups, unlimited Undo, Find, and note encryption to keep sensitive information safe.

Shareware, $35.00
Requirements:
Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) or higher is required for TopXNotes iPod. TopXNotes iPod also requires a newer (3rd generation or newer) iPod. Apple has not used the informal “generations” terminology and it is not easy to find out about. However, if an iPod has an LCD and Dock connector, and the Apple Notes Reader is installed, it should work. We hope to present a more formal list of models in the future.
