Alien Skin prescribes Image Doctor 2 for image retouching

imagedoctor 20071126 190710 Alien Skin prescribes Image Doctor 2 for image retouchingAlien Skin Software today announced the release of Image Doctor 2, the new version of its software for photo restoration, compressed JPEG image repair, smart object removal, blemish concealment, and skin softening in one package.

I reviewed the original Image Doctor and highly recommended it. Image Doctor 2 offers a number of improvements to the original release. Chief among these improvements is Image Doctor 2′s rendering speed and quality. Image Doctor 2′s range of skin retouching capabilities has also been expanded. The software’s Skin Softener and Blemish Concealer filters together offer a wider array of skin beautifying capabilities than available in Image Doctor 1.

The performance upgrades in Image Doctor 2 result from changes to the original rendering algorithms and to the program’s multithreading capacity. Other new improvements in Image Doctor 2 include 16-bit support, native support for Macintosh Intel computers, multiprocessor support for all filters, and a variety of user interface changes.

Image Doctor 2 sells for USD$199 with an upgrade price of USD$99 for registered users of Image Doctor 1. Free upgrades are available to purchasers of Image Doctor 1 who purchased on October 26, 2007 or later.

QuickerTek brings 802.11a/b/g/n to the Mac mini

acard mini 400 1 20070910 181839 QuickerTek brings 802.11a/b/g/n to the Mac miniQuickerTek has announced a new 802.11 upgrade for Mac Mini Intel computers. Most notable is the addition of 802.11a wireless – a feature not even available from Apple. It is available as both a user-installed product for USD$149.95, or QuickerTek can install the upgrade for the customer for USD$199.95 (including the upgrade and installation but excluding users choice of shipping).
This upgrade provides 802.11 a/b/g/n compatibility for complete wireless network freedom. The upgrade also has an external antenna for ‘a’ wireless as well as three antennas for MIMO wireless – which enables the Mac Mini to easily reach top wireless speeds not previously possible on accessible networks.

The user-installed upgrade includes the high speed 802.11 upgrade card, external antennas, cabling, tools and illustrated installation manual–everything needed to install the Mac Mini upgrade.

The installation service is available using any shipping option the customer chooses, with shipping charges added to the $199.95 installed upgrade cost. The upgrade service allows the customer to pay for the exact shipping speed and company they prefer.

This wireless networking upgrade is made to the same specifications as the Apple factory networking products. It works with all 802.11a//b/g/n WiFi equipment including Apple AirPort, AirPort Extreme and the latest 802.11n version of AirPort Extreme, as well as common wireless hardware from Linksys, Belkin and other popular brands found in thousands of wireless networks across the country.

Like most QuickerTek products, this 802.11a/b/g/n wireless upgrade is backed with a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
