684: 20 Mac Apps Under $20

Looking through my Applications folder (all prices in US $) …

Note that I’ve collected these apps over a number of years, and there is some duplication of functionality. And while they might be on my hard drive, they might not be in active use. I am definitely an app collector. :slight_smile:

Perhaps you will find something useful, happy browsing!
