    A Clone of the Apple Software Update. Im not sure if im going to open source it or anything. Its simple, has alot of features and is practical as it doesn't mean you have to code a enw auto updater each time you make an application just write a description and update the master ini file.

    Features;
    • Adds Applications to Start Menu's All Programs
    • All Stored in Registery
    • Mostly server based so no need for a Updater update upon each release
    • Can hold/Update asmany as the server can handle at a time.
    • Looks like Apples Updater
    • Creates Shortcut on Desktop.

    Errors;
    • None.

    ToDo:
    • Get a logo

    Pictures;

    Why would i sell it? Its easy todo and i hate this community now. It's all "oh you could sell this", "only $9 for litetime access, enjoy our stolen code". Ugg, pisses me off. It should all be free/open source.

    apple is the company, they make the software and rebrand some hardware. Only thing they make themselves is the case.
    A Mac is hardware Mac OSX is the software. IOS is the Iphone OS
