CoM - Parallels

Black Friday isn’t for a few more days, but that isn’t stopping Cult of Mac Deals from kicking things off early. First up is a utility bundle packaged to “supercharge” your Mac.

Parallels 8 was recently revamped to not only be faster and more powerful, but more importantly, now it plays nice with both Mountain Lion and Windows 8. If you’ve ever wanted to run Windows on your Mac, this is the way to go.

The Mac Utility Bundle includes Parallels 8, SnagIt, Virus Barrier, MacOptimizer, and Rubbernet for just $59.99. Parallels is normally $80 on its own, so this is a pretty stellar Black Friday deal!

Here’s more on what you’ll get in this power-packed bundle:

  • Parallels Desktop 8 for Mac: This is the #1 rated utility to run Windows on your Mac, and with Parellels Desktop 8 you can run Windows on your Mac without rebooting. The easy-to-use interface allows for a seamless experience on both the Mac and Windows side of things, and this version sports over 90 new features.
  • Snagit for Mac: With Snagit’s easy-to-use tools, you can quickly create images and videos to give feedback, solve a problem, or simply show off something cool. There are so many features built-in to Snagit, such as the ability to enhance images with stamps, text, and effects, the ability to organize your screen captures with easy auto-storing and tagging features, and much more.
  • VirusBarrier X6: Want protection from viruses, Trojan Horses, and all other known Mac malware? ViruxBarrier X6 has got you covered. It’s also the only antivirus for Mac that provides solid protection against network threats, with a two-way firewall, network protection, anti-phishing, anti-spyware features, and more.
  • MacOptimizer: MacOptimizer does a whole lot of optimizing. It gets your Mac back in shape by cleaning your system caches, optimizing your Mac’s speed, speeding up Mail client, freeing up inactive memory, and so much more!

And the first 3,000 buyers will get a copy of Rubbernet, an app that keeps an eye on all network-enabled apps running on your Mac so you can take the necessary actions to resolve the problem. Rubbernet provides real-time monitoring so you can keep an eye on the exact state of your live network connections. It’s a $36 value…and if you get in on this deal early then you’ll get it for absolutely free.

But we’re not done yet…

Even if you decide to take ap ass on this bundle – although we have no idea why you’d do that – you can score yourself another free app: MacX iPad Video Converter. Thanks to our friends over at Digiarty we’re able to hook you up with a killer Mac app that allows you to convert all of your videos to play on your iPad at no cost to you. That’s a price anyone can get behind.

The Mac Utility Bundle is a rock-solid deal that won’t last for long. Save 75% off for a limited time and get this Cult of Mac Deals offer while you can!
