If you do any screen casting, Screenflow is great and makes this bundle worth it. However they tend to put it in bundles when a new version is coming.

I don't buy bundles anymore. I have GB of software I never use that came alongside many good programs I do use daily. I don't have any needs that are not met with what I have, and frankly the bundles no longer have the good stuff. Thats all on the App store or just never in bundles (Omni, Panic, et al).

I used to do the bundle thing. You typically get 1-3 apps you can use and the rest that you really never do. This doesn't look appealing. I tried DeltaWalker at some point and wasn't impressed. I've used Visual Differ instead. Really none of the comparison apps are that great. ScreenFlow. Is it better than SnapzProX? PDFPen - If you need Acrobat, get Acrobat.

This bundle has zero appeal to me... It neither has any app that's even slightly interesting to me, nor a good price.

Yeah... I'm out!

Wow, no Parallels this time?

Not close enough to the release of Parallels 10 for them to start bundling 9.

I have purchased many bundles with no regrets. This bundle has zero appeal to me... It neither has any app that's even slightly interesting to me, nor a good price.

Although I think I might know a person who'd be interested in getting Rails... But they're not on Twitter.

I've seen Vitamin-R reccomended for people with ADHD / problems with focus. Thinking of getting it myself. Anyone here any experience with that kind of thing?

I wouldnt say I have major issues with focussing, but I did find Vitamin-R useful this was the previous version and I bought it on special offer via the Mac App Store. Although I suppose most of it you could do without the software (e.g. breaking big tasks in small ones, user a generic timer), I found the app attractive, I liked using it and found it did help me from getting distracted.

When the new version came out, I had a quick look and thought it seemed a decent upgrade but I wasnt sure that I wanted to shell out more money for it, as the first was fine. (That said, the developers do a lifetime upgrade option.) However, Im going to get this bundle as more of the apps I can see myself using and Im going to get my moneys worth and Vitamin-R is sweetening the deal.

BTW, in case you've seen, a demo is available and I reckon it doesn't take too long (e.g. a few sessions at the Mac) to work out if it's going to work out for you.

----------

Quick question for anyone who has bought these bundles before:

Is it possible just to download and install just the apps you want after purchase?

Yes - IIRC, you're sent the keys for each (and a download link).
