One that jumps instantly to mind is the computer using population. What's your point?What other kind of computer population is there?
I think xrayzed's post might be helpful if you're having difficulties of interpretation.

Parallels Desktop alone costs $79.99. If it gets unlocked, it's like getting everything else for free.
So if they don't meet their sales goals, you're basically screwed and don't get many of the apps they're claiming to offer? Sorry, I'll pass on BS like that.
this strategy sounds crazy. the unlocking threat seems more likely to encourage individual purchasers to hold off, until enough of us have jumped in on the gamble that all the features will eventually be unlocked.
or is there some genius marketing principle i'm missing here?
happy to buy the bundle; not willing to take part in some weird consumption gamble.
What % of the profit are the developers getting? Not less than the organizers I hope.
I don't, I'm a mac user, not a Windows user. And I'd prefer it that way, or I wouldn't had bought this mbp.
So why does the ad on the MR front page say Parallels and 9 other apps with no mention that Parallels and one other app are still locked?
Isn't that misleading advertising? Seems pretty bogus to me.
A price tag greater than $50 really kills the appeal of a bargain bundle, imo.
Maybe you could use StoryMill to write a novel about a troll?Why?
So I have all the apps I actually want - quite apart from the logic of running Windows on inferior Apple hardware, I also have Parallels / VMware licenses coming out of my ears because we buy them just in case. I'm happy.

Maybe consider "The Troll Who Can Take a Joke" — that's even rarer. But you've won my respect either way.Awesome idea. "The Troll Who Had A Clue" in the non-fiction category... I'll get right on it.
On a related note, I have been playing around with Storymill and it could come in very useful for me and not in a storywriting scenario. All in all, I think I got a deal - a better one perhaps than MacHeist.

I agree with your thoughts on the current MacHeist bundle. The last one was quite good, with Pixelmator and VectorDesigner, but this one seems to have abandoned full applications in favour of games and little helper utilities.
A few posters have said "why would i want to run windows on inferior apple hardware?", sorry, but did i miss the sarcasm or did they mean it?
Parallels is unlocked.

Argh. The amount of bundles sold is going amazingly slow! We won't reach 15.000 sold if this keeps up. Buy people! BUY!![]()
