MacUpdatePromo

I just purchased the promo bundle from MacUpdate... excellent deal. No real
desire for the "biggie" in the deal, Parallels (I have VMware) but for under
$70 the rest of the software is well worth it.

I did just test and three of the nine applications that I got from there
quit when you close the last window ... and Hazel and MenuCalendarClock and
Typinator are not typical windowed programs (they are prefpanes or menu
items).

Art Text
BannerZest
DVD Remaster

So of the nine, six are windowed... and half of those quit when the last
window is closed.

That does not speak well of consistency in how windows work on a Mac...
