Sometimes we come across deals we think are too good to be true, looking for a clever catch in the fine print. While, in some instances, our instincts are spot-on, other times we’re left full of regret for missing out on the kind of limited-time sale that only comes around once in a while.
Don’t let the latter happen to you. The Official Cyber Monday Mac Bundle Ft. Parallels Pro & Luminar 4 will change the way you use your Mac, and is only available for a limited time. Featuring 12 hugely popular apps, there’s something for everyone, and will ultimately make your Mac run better.
The star of this bundle is definitely Parallels, which normally costs more than this entire bundle does. It’s widely known as the best software for running Windows on a Mac, so you can enjoy the best of both operating systems. If you use one OS for work and another for play (it’s great for gamers!), expect a smooth user experience. It's trusted by over 7 million users, and is a top-15 grossing app in the Mac App Store.
Luminar 4 is another highlight. The world’s first AI-powered photo editor, the software has won numerous awards and was most recently named Outdoor Photographer Editors' Pick EISA Award: Best Photo Software 2019-2020. Photographers of any skill level can easily perfect their portraits, replace dull skies, polish images, and more.
The bundle also includes productivity apps like PDFpenPro (the simplest way to edit a PDF), MindMaster (a professional mind-mapping tool), and BusyCal 3 (an enhanced calendar app), with the added perks of two lifetime subscriptions. One is GooseVPN, which ensures privacy and security as you surf the web – plus, it has 4.7 stars in the App Store and 5 stars on CNET. The other subscription is for uTalk, the language e-learning platform featuring 140+ languages, 30 million users, and 4.3 stars in the App Store.
There’s truly something for every Mac user in this highly rated bundle. To put it in perspective, last year’s bundle raked in more than 100 5-star reviews, and over 17,000 were sold. The clock is ticking, so move fast – this incredible deal is only available for a limited time.

Tesla has continued to beat expectations as illustrated by its last quarter earnings despite issues in Shanghai, China. Dan Ives, the managing director of equity research at Wedbush Securities, joined Cheddar News to talk about the resilience of Tesla. "I thought they were almost Cinderella-like numbers," he said about the delivery numbers. "They are performing just miles ahead of any auto player, and that's why the stock is doing what it's doing. In my opinion, they're expanding their lead in EVs, even in this Category 5 hurricane that we're seeing in China." Ives noted that issues in China could pose ongoing challenges going forward even with the largely positive outlook.

AT&T reported a 2.5 percent rise in its core wireless revenue for the first quarter as its 5G rollout expands across the United States, even as the company pivots away from streaming to focus on its communication business amid heightened demand for high-speed internet. CEO John Stankey joined Cheddar's Opening Bell to discuss the company's 5G plans, its divestment from WarnerMedia, and its push into the metaverse. "To the extent that we start to see social aspects come into the metaverse that allows people to — as they're out and about — experience those kinds of things, that just puts a higher premium on mobile networks and scaled robust mobile networks to enable those applications, which is our bread and butter, and it's probably one of our best returning and best yielding businesses," he said.
