Mach Desktop allows your to run Quartz Compositions, Quicktime movies, or Web pages as your desktop.
Mach Desktop also introduces a concept called the desktop utility, where you can have commonly used utilities living on your desktop. Stop living in a single picture world and give your desktop the polish it deserves.
Mach Desktop is your desktop reinvented. Mach Desktop offers you to run three kinds of data types on your desktop: Quartz compositions, Quicktime movies, and Web pages. Quartz Compositions are a Mac OS X-only data type that allows developers to quickly and easily make stunning 3D compositions.
Since Quartz Compositions are easy to make, there are literally thousands of them available.
Quartz compositions are built using a visual programming environment that take advantage of a massive set of technologies including but not limited to; Particle generators, 3D shapes, collision detection, realistic physics, 3D textures, per pixel lighting, video capturing and so much more.
Quartz Compositions have been begging to be let out on the desktop for way too long: and Mach Desktop delivers. Many screen savers are also quartz compositions as well.
In addition to Quartz Compositions, Mach Desktop can also play Quicktime movies. The explosion of Quicktime has never been higher. Hundreds, maybe even thousands, of applications support exporting as Quicktime and its often very easy to grab a Quicktime version of a video on the Internet.
However, its so much more than just playing quicktime movies. You can easily set Mach Desktop to play a portion of a movie by positioning two sliders. You can slow down or speed up movies so it sounds like chipmunks. And of course you can set the volume.
If you have additional Quicktime plug ins installed, Mach Desktop will automatically take advantage of those extra movie formats.
One may think this may be enough for a good looking desktop, but we didnt stop there. In addition to Quartz Compositions and Quicktime movies, we also added Web Page support. Have a favorite web page you cant stop visiting? Put it on the desktop.
Lastly, instead of just making the desktop aesthetically appealing, we also added a concept called Desktop Utilities. Desktop utilities do what they suggest: They are utilities that live on your desktop. Even more convenient than widgets, desktop utilities are always just a keystroke or mouse gesture away.
Constantly opening and closing the Calculator app? Keep the Calculator utility on your desktop. Tired of looking up phone numbers and addresses? Thats where our Address Book utility comes in handy.
Want a quick glance of whos online in iChat? We have you covered. We have several utilities available, including but not limited to; a multiple clipboard that records the last five items, an iTunes controller, a calendar, a calculator, an address book and an iChat buddy list controller.
With stunning desktop imagery and desktop utilities, the Macintosh Desktop has never looked so good. Download Mach Desktop today and see how much better it is than living in a normal desktop environment.

Now you can get the convenience of automatic telephone speed dialing -- while working in virtually any Macintosh application. Desktop Dialer makes dialing fast, accurate, and easy.
Simply highlight a phone number in your Macintosh application and press a hot key. The number automatically dials through the phone line of your choice. Desktop Dialer will dial from virtually any Macintosh application. Plus, Desktop Dialer includes a free desk accessory, DialerDA, so you can create a personal phone directory of your most frequently called numbers.
DialerDA will instantly dial any number with just a click of the mouse. Desktop Dialer recognizes the way you work. It operates with standard one-line and two-line telephones, automatically dialing through the line you select. All you do is pick up the handset (or turn on the speakerphone), and Desktop Dialer will dial through the chosen line. Desktop Dialer is even smart enough to know when to wait for an open line before dialing.
Enhancements:
- SCIAC has been replaced by new Dialer Extension, which now automatically installs into your Systems Extension folder when you install the Desktop Dialer software.
- The Dialer Extension runs in the background every time you start your Macintosh, without affecting overall system performance.
- The Dialer Extension receives AppleEvents for the Dialer Control Panel to enable automatic dialing from programs that support AppleEvent dialing, such as FileMaker Pro and Act!. This new extension also now allows the Dialer to receive AppleScript instructions to dial and redial.
