“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 27
On the Twenty-Seventh Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) Your very own copy of Pixelmator! – The image editor for the rest of us!
Actually, THIS time around we’re giving away TWO copies! So now you have twice as many chances to lose, er… win!
Sure, Photoshop is nice, but it costs more than 4 years at most art schools. Pixelmator is the hot new graphics app that is hip with the kids, and now you too can be hip! (Yes, Pixelmator is all it will take to make you hip).
What makes it so cool? Well, first, it’s the only image editor built exclusively for Mac OS X, and it shows. Pixelmator harnesses the full power of Mac OS X, taking advantage not only of Core Image, Open GL and Automator, but also by supporting, ColorSync, Spotlight and many other technologies, such as one-click access to your iPhoto Library, Quick Look, Tablet support, iSight import. With over 130 filters, advanced painting, color correction, and photo retouching tools – not to mention the ability to open and save in virtually any graphic format known to man – Pixelmator is the bees knees. (And of course, what graphics app would be complete without Layers?)
Plus to top it off, they sprinkled a generous dose of “eye candy” over the whole thing, which is makes it fun to use too! (Click here to check out all the features or download a demo).
To enter: Since this time around we’re giving out a license to a DUO of lucky readers, leave us a comment telling us who was/is the best “duo” of all time? ( Example: Was it Abbott & Costello? Batman & Robin? Itchy & Scratchy? Xena & Gabriel? Who?) Winners will be picked randomly 7 days later and notified (kind of like in The Ring, only with less killing… we hope). Open to all readers world-wide. Good luck, and thanks for reading Macenstein! (Oh, and be sure to enter ALL our “12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaways!)
Please note: Comments may take a while to show up, please do not double-post. Thanks!

Mac OSX and Intel 🙂
By far the greatest duo ever. It is hard to imagine a time before the marriage made in heaven (or Steve’s office).
No more do we have to suffer under the slow emulation of Virtual PC and instead we experience the joys of visualization that our linux and windows peers enjoyed for years.
No longer is the speed of our CPU set at the whims of suits at IBM HQ. Instead we are liberated in the land of x86 core/quad goodness where there is more than one vendor. Intel know very well that if Apple are unhappy they would switch to AMD/nvidia/whoever-else-makes-cpus-these-days. Freedom has a sweet taste.
The duo has given us one of the greatest tools to lure PC users away from their dull grey boxes: duel booting. Once they taste the sweet nectar of OS X we just subtly smile with the knowledge that they probably will never duel boot again. It is the ultimate gateway drug.
Yes my friends. Mac OS X and Intel is the greatest duo *ever*. We loved you PPC, but all good things must eventually come to an end.
