The much rumored release of OS X 10.1.2 is still pending. A number of sites are touting the features of the new release, but I still think it is best to wait and see what the update includes rather than speculating...

- GraphicConverter X 4.2 - A vast number of enhancements and bug fixes come to the new version of this graphics app
I have been using the OS X version of CopyPaste now for more than 24 hours and after some brief oddness when I first installed it, it has been as reliable and as valuable a tool under OS X as it was when I used it under OS 9.x. Yes, it costs $20 for this new version of CopyPaste-X 1.0, but in my book, it is one of the must-have utilities for OS X. It adds more clipboards as well as clipboard editing tools and some other text-tweaking capabilities that make it invaluable if you use your Mac for serious work.

The $20 shareware utility offers up to 10 clipboards whose contents can be saved between restarts as well as a clipboard recorder that remembers the last 100 clipped items and a clipboard editor. I haven't used this program under OS X just yet. I am downloading it now...but it was one of my favorite utilities under OS 9.x and earlier, and it is something I have been anticipating being able to use once again under OS X...[posted at 9:17 a.m. PDT] -- As you likely know, Apple didn't release OS X 10.1.2 late Friday or over the weekend, but there is still a lot of speculation that the release should be available very soon...[posted at 9:11 a.m. PDT]
