  1. VLC Media Player - play DVDs and almost any video format
    1. To have multiple windows, run,

      Code Block
      languagebash
      open -n /Application/VLC.app/

      Note, the playlist tends to go over the same place so it's not obvious sometimes if it worked. Figure out a parameter to fix this later.

    2. Clear recent files in dock 
    3. Possibly remove the function of recent files in dock (still to try)
  2. Microsoft Office - Yeah you can't avoid it and using it since 2010 have not run into compatibility issues.
  3. Kuvva (yet to try) - Wallpaper changer that pulls down nice wallpapers.
  4. Secure Delete - Built into OS, drag files into garbage, then hold down apple key and right click, select "Secure Empty Trash".
  5. Avaste Free Edition - As of 2012 top ranking antivirus for my use (but I do not rely on on-demand checking). Downside is no scheduling but not intrusive.
  6. Avira Free Edition - As of 2012 2nd top ranking antivirus + can do automatic scheduled scans. Downside is disabling on demand keeps on resetting in Windows. No longer using.
  7. Resize Browser Window - Useful for consistent screenshots.
