Greetings From Nisus Land
"I'm Having One!"
Ok, let's get a few things clear. First, I am tired. Very tired. Second, never, ever ask for a raise from your employer whilst he is surrounded by a pack of attack dogs. Third, never, ever give your significant others nicknames like Jumbo or Boxcar. For some reason, they don't like that.
Yes, I realize that this has nothing to do with Nisus, our products, Apple, or anything computer or insurance related. I just had to get these things off my chest, ok?
Now we can move on.
Ok, so being serious for a second, we would like to thank all of you who were concerned about us during the firestorms here in San Diego County. We appreciate and are, quite frankly, touched by your kind words. Things are slowly getting back to normal for most of us. For others, it will be a long time before things are normal. Our thoughts and prayers are with them.
So now let's talk about fun stuff! Like the new versions of Express and Pro.
Well, fun for us, anyway.
Nisus Writer Pro
"What's New In Pro 1.0.2?"
Nisus Writer Pro 1.0.2 is now final, and not a moment too soon! So what's new? Leopard support is the main bullet point. But, since we were there, we also fixed a few bugs, added Italian localization, and added a few new macro commands.
To find out about all of the changes, modifications, enhancements, and all around gossip, you can read about them on our release notes page.
This update is free to current Pro users. For those who do not yet own Pro, it is available now at our store for only $79 for the full version, and $45 for the upgrade from previous versions of Express. A three license Family Pack is available for $99.00. CD versions are available for $10.00 more plus shipping.
You can read all about Pro, or download the 15 day fully working demo from the our Nisus Writer Pro product page.
Nisus Writer Pro is a Universal Binary and requires Mac OS X 10.3.9, or 10.4 for right to left text input.
Nisus Writer Express
"Express 3.0.1 In The Wild"
Nisus Writer Express has also been updated to version 3.0.1. Like Pro, this release adds Leopard support, fixes some bugs, Italian localization, and eliminates your enemies. Wait ... scratch that last feature. For now.
The full release notes can be read on the Express release notes page.
This update is free to current Express 3 users. If you would like to purchase Express, the cost is only $45 for the full version, $30 for the upgrade from any previous version of Express. A three license Family pack is $79.
You can download a 15 day fully working demo, or purchase Express 3.0.1 at our Express page.
Nisus Writer Express is a Universal Binary and requires Mac OS X 10.3.9, or 10.4 for right to left text input.
So, if you do not need the features of Pro, and would like something easy to use, yet powerful, Nisus Writer Express 3.0.1 is a great choice, if I do say so myself.
Reviews
"Because We Like To Brag"
Actually, we really don't like to brag. But, because I am too tired to restrain myself, here we are.
First, a German language review of Nisus Writer Pro at testticker.de.
"Nisus Writer Pro is one of those killer programs for Mac OS X that packs in a hell of a lot of features and makes you wonder why you weren't using an Apple sooner." writes Eric Norton of Software Battle. "Nisus Writer Pro is one incredible product and a very good competitor to Microsoft Word."
Finally, in his review of Nisus Writer Pro for About This Particular Macintosh, Ed Eubanks, Jr. writes: "Nisus Writer Pro, the latest word processor in the Nisus Writer family, may be the closest thing to the alternative to Microsoft Word as the word-processing application for everyone."
Ok, fine. So we like to brag. Now you know the truth.
Happy now?
