Eagle-eyed browsers of the MacHeist site may have noticed a preview video posted this afternoon that indicates a new retail bundle is just around the corner. You can't quite make out all the listed applications from the bundle, but a couple of those icons look familiar...Want to drag a file to another folder and copy it instead of moving it? Press the Option key when you drag that file and it'll be duplicated rather than moved entirely.

I see Xslimmer too. It's got a black X on a scale for its app icon.

I see iClip... which is very sad, considering it's an app that hasn't been upgraded since january 2007 and is not compatible with Spaces (and crashes every 5 minutes anyway in Leopard)...

CoverSutra and Awakening appear to be there too.

Xslimmer, CoverSutra and Awaken were all part of MacHeist II.

Wow it looks like over half of those apps are from other bundles including their own. That is pretty bad.

Plenty info (including a list) here:

Looks like it's a "best of", hence the repeated apps.

How can you make a best-of when you only had 20 apps in the past?
Anyway, I bought the first two, so this one I'm gonna pass. I don't think this one will be as popular.

No Speed Download?

My guess is the box shown in the teaser contains only apps previously released on MacHeist. These will probably not be the Apps in the bundle

Eh, this is a "best of" bundle. I already have most of these apps.

Nice, but pass.

Best of...yeah right. Where's TextMate then? Seriously, iClip? The product blog on iClip still has that ridiculous test post on there for an entire year. Also, the Cha-Ching developers have promised Macheist 2 buyers (myself included) version 2.0 when we bought the bundle four months ago. Still hasn't happened; probably will never happen.
Definitely not worth it.

Low and behold, new MH set to debut right after I buy Coversutra; just my luck. Right after regretting not buying MH when it came out last time. Double whammy.
I guess if this came with Pixelmator I'd buy it, but blah. The only reason I'd buy this now is for Coversutra but that's long gone.
I really don't need an extra program to run my banking, those games look pretty lame and I really can't find a need for iClip (except for another reason to make fun of iNouns) so I really don't have a need for any of that other junk.
Here's a potential list of the apps according to zackkitzmiller on the MH forums (for those too lazy to click the above link):
1) Cha-Ching
2) CoverSutra
3) XSlimmer
4) Awaken
5) Nanosour 2
6) Bugdom 2
7) WingNuts 2
8) WriteRoom
9) DevonThink
10) EarthDesk
11) 1passwd -> Looks like this is TextExpander now.
12) iClip

Those aren't the apps. They'll reveal them one at a time, as always, on a specific night...

After the hassles I had with getting licenses last time, I'll be passing this time round.
