I am big fan of Babylon and have been using this utility extensively. It is much more than a translation tool for me. It is the ultimate reference utility. I use various topical glossaries (technology, finance, sports), dictionaries, thesauruses and it is among the top 5 software I use most every day (only email, browser & IM/Skype are ahead of it).
But since switching to a Mac I had to find all kinds of workarounds that allowed me to keep using Babylon. Such as copy and paste terms from Mac applications into Babylon for Windows (I have a Virtual Machine on my Mac). But the experience was not the same.
Earlier today, and just by coincidence, I discovered that Babylon has finally released its version for the Mac. The Mac version costs exactly like the Window version ($89) so there is no "Apple Tax" in this case.
BTW, I wonder how this piece of news was not published on Mac/Apple related blogs and sites.
You can buy Babylon for Mac here.
I’ve been planning to get a mac, but the lack of Babylon was putting me off! Yes, I am that dependent on it!
Anyone tried it though? Someone mentioned it has to have an internet connection all the time.
In this case, why don’t we just find a toll to convert our offline dictionaries and use the mac dictionary for wikipedia?
Any ideas?
Babylon is an awesome software. Not only a single click translator, but a source of knowledge and of ideas. Working without babylon is simply impossible… I installed it`s latest version On my computer (windows xp professional) using crack and serial… Still waiting for a crack/serial for the mac version xD
