Photoshop Elements 6

Today's product feature returns, after a nearly monthlong hiatus. I do apologize for that, but I have been busy with other blogs! The return is strong though, featuring Photoshop Elements 6. This is a great piece of software for anyone who is looking to do some editing, image and logo creation, but doesn't need the pro side of the editing suite.

Photoshop Elements 6 is the latest release in the Photoshop elements line. Some of the great editing features that it includes are:

  • Make your photos look their best with easy-to-use editing tools
  • Do more with your photos in unique creations for print and web
  • Easily find and view all your photos and video clips
  • Easily perform more advanced retouching and enhancing thanks to easy image-selection tools, amazing compositing capabilities, and more
  • Share your stories in imaginative photo books, scrapbook pages, slide shows, interactive web galleries, and more
Even better, there is an offer for Photoshop Elements 6 available through Amazon. The first is a rebate of an additional $20 for those of you who purchase!

That brings the price of the excellent Photoshop Elements 6 down to $59.99, a steal! Grab it today and begin creating your own logos, and templates for blogs and who knows what else.

Bioshock for Xbox 360

My word, it's been over a week since I've posted something that I've wanted. It's not that I've forgotten about this site, but I'm working on some really big things, and this just kind of hit the back burner. I'm back though! Just in time for the holiday season, eh? Anyway, today's product is a video game, and quite a popular one at that. It's a great deal too. Today, I'm featuring Bioshock.

Bioshock is a great Xbox 360 game. I've got a funny story about how I got my system, but that's for another day. In Bioshock, you are exploring an underwater utopia that has been ravaged by scientific experiments. Dead corpses lie everywhere, and around every corner genetically altered mutants are waiting to ambush you. As you travel through the city, you must acquire new weapons, upgrade the ones that you have, and use all of your cunning in order to survive. In the end, you must decide whether to exploit everyone in order to survive, or risk everything in order to try to save the survivors?

If you're a first person shooter fan, and you don't have this one yet, you've got to go pick it up right away. Why is that? Well, there is a deal over at Amazon. If you buy Bioshock, you can pick up The Darkness for free!!! That's a buy one get one deal... and you know that's not something you're going to get all the time.

Bioshock is selling for $49.99, saving you $10 right away. Don't forget to pick up the Darkness for FREE. Of course, both are available in my Astore!

Apple iWork 08'

Today's product will go great with the new Mac OSX if you've purchased that already. This is something that I'm really interested in getting, and always have it in my hand but don't quite pick it up. As soon as I get my new Mac, this will be one of the first things I buy for it. Ladies and gentlemen, Apple's iWork '08.

Apple iWork '08 is a productivity suite designed by apple to compete with Microsoft Office. While MS office is a great product, I think that there are some things that it could do better. Apple iWork '08 fills in these gaps. Featuring three programs, all aptly named. Pages, Keynote, and Numbers. After have experimented with these, you can tell that these are well designed products that work extraordinarily well.

Features of Apple iWork '08 include:

  • Apple's productivity suite for the Mac, iWork '08 includes three applications: Pages '08, Numbers '08, and Keynote '08
  • Powerful word processing and page layout with 140 Apple-designed templates with Pages
  • Effortlessly create stunning presentations, complete with Apple-designed themes, cinema-quality animations, and voiceover narration with Keynote
  • Create compelling spreadsheets for everything from family budgets and event planning to invoices and complex financial reports with Numbers
  • Import and export compatibility with Microsoft Office
There is so much more information available on this product. You just have to check out the page on Amazon to see it all! I've seen this in action and its incredible what they've managed to do. And you don't even have to worry about compatability, because it all works with MS Office as well! It's been 2 years since Apple has made upgrades, and you know that they were just waiting for Leopard to come out! But I'm sure that the wait was worth it!

All of this comes at a much cheaper price than MS Office. You can get this whole suite for just $69.99 and free shipping! The family pack is just $10 more! Of course Apple iWork '08 is available in my Astore!

Mac OSX Leopard

My second product today, as promised! This one is for Mac OSX Leopard. I have always been a huge fan of Macs, and this is a huge release. It comes with tons of new features, and is sure to feature the Mac OSX stability that we're all used to. The release date is set for later this month, October 26th. So that's just about 9 days to pre-order the most exciting OS to be released recently! (Vista does not count)

Anyway, Mac OSX Leopardis really heavy on the new features. These include:

  • A New Desktop
  • An Improved Finder - Great news to Mac OSX fans!
  • Quick Preview - Allows you to look at and play all of your files without opening them.
  • Improved Mail - More features, and personalized stationary.
  • Improved iChat - With new video backgrounds and more.
  • Spaces - Split your screen into several different workspaces.
  • Safari - Even more improved on the world's fastest browser - hopefully it will be better integrated with Blogger so I can blog on it!
  • Time Machine - An amazing backup program! Back up to any date and time!
  • Parental Controls - Your kids will be completely safe online.
  • Boot Camp built in - Run Windoze natively on your Mac.
In all, there are over 300 new features in Mac OSX Leopard. I'm so excited about this new release! This is one of the components that I have been waiting for to get a new computer! The other is an update to the Mac Pro line. I can't wait to get one of those, I can really classify myself as a ProBlogger in that case. Get it, "Pro" Blogger? Ok, that was kind of lame.

Mac OSX Leopardruns for $109 pre-ordered on Amazon. Thats a savings of 20%! Both the one use and family pack licenses ($189) are available in my AStore! Of course you can always order it straight from apple also! To do that, please visit the link or banner below:
