The main applications for MacBreakZ are to prevent repetitive strain injuries (RSI) and promote healthy and pain-free computing and to aid the recovery from repetitive strain injuries.
MacBreakZ achieves this by helping us re-structure our computer usage: it monitors user activity and suggests appropriate times for recovery and micro-breaks; provides a range of stretching exercises designed to relieve muscular tension and improve static posture and it provides ergonomic information on how to use our computer in a healthy manner.

MacBreakZ is a sophisticated Personal Ergonomic Assistant designed to promote healthy and productive computer use.

Major Features:

1. Prevent & Recover from RSI
   • Computer-related health problems ranging from eyestrain, headaches, neck, wrist, elbow and back pain to more serious Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI), including carpal tunnel syndrome, writer's cramp, tendonitis, etc. are the result of inappropriate computer use.
   • MacBreakZ offers a unique way of acquiring ergonomic skills that can save you a lot of discomfort and shield you from serious health and career-threatening injury.
2. Show & Tell
   • The break reminder component of MacBreakZ features sophisticated keyboard and mouse monitoring (without invading your privacy*) that allows it to react to the way you are using your computer. What's more MacBreakZ provides you with instant feedback on how you are doing and thus lets you find out more about your work practices.
3. Suggest, Teach & Demonstrate
   • Ergo Stretch designed to reduce neck painBased on your actual keyboard and mouse use and the time you have spent in front of the screen, MacBreakZ suggests rest and micro breaks at appropriate intervals. MacBreakZ includes a set of 42 fully illustrated stretching exercises that are designed to reduce muscular tension, improve posture and strengthen appropriate muscle groups. It also features dozens of great ergonomic tips.
4. Mac Break Reminder PreferencesAdapt
   • MacBreakZ adapts to how and where you work. A sophisticated setup assistant makes sure that you start off with a configuration that suits you and your workplace. An extensive array of preferences allow you to customize everything from how activity is measured to the way information is presented on the screen.
5. Tactful & Discreet
   • MacBreakZ isn't rude and just interrupts you in the middle of something important. Through its innovative interface using transparency and sound, it keeps you informed without stealing your focus and gives you plenty of warning before a break is due and even then respectfully waits until you have stopped working. You may of course also temporarily disable MacBreakZ for that all important presentation.
6. Serious Fun
   • Healthy computing does not have to be beige. MacBreakZ features a "serious fun" interface that uses everything that Mac OS X has to offer from transparency effects to the sound interface. Lead artist, Nick Miller, also supplies a range of laid back stretching illustrations.
7. Plain Serious
   • MacBreakZ also features information displays and an illustration style that suit a more formal open plan office setting. A special "stealth" mode encodes all essential information into a inconspicuous menu bar item for those who do not wish to broadcast the fact that they are using the product. You can even take your stretches with you anywhere by using our StretchZ for iPhone/ iPod touch.

Requirements: Mac OS X 10.0 or later.

Astro is a simple arcade game where you have to dodge asteroids to stay alive.
As the number and speed of the asteroids increases, however, that may not be as easy as it sounds.

Plot (such as it is)
You are an alien UFO pilot, and for some reason unknown to you, your spaceship has been dumped in the middle of an asteroid belt. You must dodge the asteroids in a vain attempt to escape.

Objects
There are three kinds of object in the game. Your spaceship is roundish and red, and begins at the bottom of the screen. Asteroids are greyish and spherical. They fall from the top of the screen. Jewels are small and green. If you pick up a jewel (by running it over) you get an extra life.

Scoring
You get one point each time an asteroid falls off the bottom of the screen (but only if youre alive at the time!)

Controls
From the main menu screen, you can use P or Q to play or quit, respectively. You can also click the buttons. If you get a new highscore, the P and Q shortcuts will be disabled while you type in your name. In the game, use the arrow keys to move your spaceship round the screen. You can press space to pause.
