Macaroni is a nifty system maintenance software for Mac that will keep your computer running – automatically. Which is why I use it. Another reason I use Macaroni to manage my system maintenance is because it’s only $9.95.
Useful, automated system maintenance doesn’t get easier – or cheaper.
It’s compatible with Mac OSX 10.2 and up. Yes, that means it works on Leopard too.
What exactly is “System Maintenance” and why do I need it? I thought Mac’s Rule?
You’re correct, Mac does rule. However, things happen and stuff in your Mac’s operating system can get a little screwey from time to time. Enter Macaroni.
Here’s a quick summary of what it does:
Macaroni is a tool which handles regular maintenance for Mac OS X, including the Mac OS X repair privileges process as well as Unix-style maintenance. You could do this yourself, but don’t you have more interesting things to do with your time?
Yeah, Unix-style maintenance. I don’t know what that means either and you don’t have to. All I did was install the software and its started working it’s magic right away.
And it didn’t bug me while I was working either. Another cool part of this software is it only “turns on” when you’re not doing anything so it won’t get in your way:
Macaroni runs these maintenance tasks on a regular schedule, regardless of when your Mac is on. If a scheduled maintenance task is not run when it’s normally scheduled, Macaroni automatically ensures that it’s run at the next opportunity, whenever the Mac is on.
And if you’ve got one of those sweet MacBooks or MacBook Pro laptops, you’ll love this:
If your Mac is a laptop, Macaroni protects your battery by not running maintenance on battery power.
How thoughtful right?
If you’re interested in test driving Macaroni, they’ve got a free download and 35-day trial period. During that time you get full access to the software and all the regular system maintenance benefits – better performance and less to worry about.
