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.

Former Cisco Systems CEO John Chambers learned all about technology’s volatile highs and lows as a veteran of the internet’s early boom days during the late 1990s and the ensuing meltdown that followed the mania. And now he is seeing potential signs of the cycle repeating with another transformative technology in artificial intelligence. Chambers is trying take some of the lessons he learned while riding a wave that turned Cisco into the world's most valuable company in 2000 before a crash hammered its stock price and apply them as an investor in AI startups. He recently discussed AI's promise and perils during an interview with The Associated Press.
Tesla reported a surprise increase in sales in the third quarter as the electric car maker likely benefited from a rush by consumers to take advantage of a $7,500 credit before it expired on Sept. 30. The company reported Thursday that sales in the three months through September rose 7% compared to the same period a year ago. The gain follows two quarters of steep declines as people turned off by CEO Elon Musk’s foray into right-wing politics avoided buying his company’s cars and even protested at some dealerships. Sales rose to 497,099 vehicles, compared with 462,890 in the same period last year.
OpenAI could now be the world’s most valuable startup, ahead of Elon Musk’s SpaceX and TikTok parent company ByteDance, after a secondary stock sale designed to retain employees at the ChatGPT maker.
