Excellence In Software For Over Twenty Years – Only with a Mac

Press Release for 9 Nov 2010

Stairways Software releases Switcher Maestro 1.0

Perth, Western Australia - 9 Nov 2010 - Stairways Software Pty Ltd is pleased to announce Switcher Maestro 1.0, a great new way to launch applications on the Mac.

Switcher Maestro takes the window and application switching features of Keyboard Maestro and adds a fantastic new application launcher.

At the recent Apple Special Event, Steve Jobs gave a glimpse of Launchpad, which will eventually bring the iPhone/iPad home screens to the Mac so people "don't have to go hunting around for their apps". Its rare we don't agree with Apple, but organising applications on the iPhone has never seemed like much fun to us, so we've got our own solution - just press a hot key, type a few characters of the application name, press return and your application launches.

Watch the 4 second (literally!) video at:

to see just how easy it is. No organising, no folders, no navigating multiple screens.

Switcher Maestro 1.x requires Mac OS X 10.5 or greater, including 10.6 and is native PowerPC, Intel and Intel 64-bit.

Switcher Maestro is engineered by Stairways Software Pty Ltd and distributed by FastSpring. Switcher Maestro is licensed on a per workstation basis (individuals can choose to license it on a per user basis).

New customers can purchase Switcher Maestro from <http://purchase.switchermaestro.com/> for US$9.99. A volume discount of 50% is available for purchases of 5 or more copies.

A fully-functional unlicensed trial version of Switcher Maestro can be downloaded from <http://download.switchermaestro.com/>.
