WorkaMajig Manages Your Administration
WorkaMajig used to be called Creative Manager Pro, but then it got a complete overhaul, and now it's Software as a Service (SaaS) like you've never seen. WorkaMajig integrates with Mac OS X Leopard, in that you can drag and drop files to it and work with it much like you would use a desktop application.
Mac OS X 10.5 Server, a cross-media publishing platform
As with previous versions of Apple's server, Leopard server has many different modules that make it a true all-round server, but there are a couple of them that turn Leopard server into a real publishing platform.

OpenMind Mind Mapping Tool
OpenMind allows everybody to create mind maps, but the included templates refer more to educational environments than to business use. The mind mapping application itself doesn’t seem to care much, though, whether you’re going to use it being a student or a business man: the application can be used for both usages.
Verbatim External Hard Disk 640 GB
A pity, really, to incarcerate a nicely performing Samsung 640 GB, 5400 rpm SATA II drive in a USB 2.0 enclosure. The drive’s performance is great, but the USB 2.0 technology is holding it back big time. Except for this fact, the Verbatim enclosure looks quite nice. The enclosure is a sheet of black metal wrapped closely around the drive. The back of the enclosure hosts the electronics and the power switch.

Imation Atom USB flash drive
Imation has a whole range of USB flash drives, starting with normal-sized swivel-top sticks to the Atom. The Atom has no swivel top, nor any other form of protection. The reason: it’s far too small for that. Plugged in a USB port, the Atom disappears for about half its height, rendering the stick near-invisible.
Pioneer BDR-202BK
I therefore was happily surprised when Pioneer sent me a test unit for their BDR-202BK, a SATA Blu-Ray disc burner that has “ordinary” DVD and CD burning capabilities as well. The device still writes Blu-Ray media at 2x speed, and its DVD and CD writing performance is not blazingly fast, but at least you can now burn all the media currently available.
WiebeTech UltraDock v4
WiebeTech is well-known for its range of extraordinary hardware products, including forensic products. UtraDock v4 is the newest in their range of “Dock” products --small, aluminium boxes that accept a hard disk or media burner connector and connects it through to a Mac via another connection technology. UltraDock v4 does this for SATA and PATA (IDE) disks at the input side.
The device connects through via the whole spectrum of port technologies that we have to our disposal these days: FireWire 400 and 800, USB 2 and eSATA. I tested the UltraDock v4 with a couple of SATA disks, an IDE disk (PATA), a SATA and ATA media burner and a 2.5 inch PATA disk. I connected using eSATA, USB 2 and FireWire 800.

Collectorz Music Collector Pro
As far as I know, there is only one program that does all this, and additionally allows you to add music CDs using online music data services from all over the world: Music Collector Pro. The Pro stands for the added ability to create your own data fields, manage loans, and export your data to a number of file formats.
