MacATM parodies Mac software industry
Comedy site The Daily Grind has released MacATM 1.0, an app meant to parody the sometimes ridiculous world of Mac business and development software. "Mac OS X users have previously labored under the platform's lack of a comprehensive ATM simulation solution," Grind president Joe Stella is quoted as saying. Once installed on a Mac, says VP Damian Prendergast, users can "enjoy the excitement and immersion of an ATM on the move or at home. You need never again ram-raid a shopping center or take a tow-truck to the bank."
The app is a Universal Binary for Mac OS X 10.3 or higher, and a free 1.4MB download. Prendergast denies allegations that the software could erase a hard drive or start a power supply fire.
