Glenn also looks in depth at the significant drop in pricing for the CrashPlan Central hosted backup service. Meanwhile, Doug McLean reports on the return of the matte screen option for the 15-inch MacBook Pro and compiles a list of his top ten favorite Apple t-shirts. Finally, Adam covers Microsoft's announcement of the forthcoming Outlook for Mac and other changes in Microsoft Office. Notable software releases this week include Default Folder X 4.3, PCalc 3.5, AirPort Client Update for MacBook and MacBook Pro, PDFpen 4.2, Safari 4.0.3, Cocktail 4.4.1, SubEthaEdit 3.5, and Audio Hijack Pro 2.9.2.
