Leopard compatibility with iCal synchronization for a visual display of
your workday. iCal synchronization continues to be supported on Tiger
and older versions of Mac OS X.
Until May 1, MUG members can take 15% off the regular price of
OfficeTime, either individual or multi-license copies by using the
special user group discount code. (more)
