CNET Editors' review
If you've ever wanted to expand your Mac's capabilities, you probably wondered what--and how much--your machine could handle. This free utility eliminates the guesswork, providing current, comprehensive, and accurate technical specifications on every Mac known to man, from Cupertino's latest right on down to the vintage Macintosh 128K, along with technical information on servers, other Apple devices, and OS software stretching back to System 2.0.1.
Mactracker maintains data on everything from maximum RAM and processor speed to performance benchmarks, expansion slots, firmware, built-in hardware, and more--all in a clean, newly redesigned interface that provides strong search capabilities and customizable, iTunes-style smart categories (so, for example, you could create a search by processor type). Mactracker is also fun for just taking a trip down Mac memory lane: you can flip through models sorted by release year, look up original retail prices (in multiple currencies), see icons for each machine, and even listen to original start-up chime and death chime audio. Mactracker is a must for sysadmins and technicians, and just plain useful--and fun--for anybody else.
