Mactracker 5

Developer Ian Page today unveiled Mactracker 5 – a tool outlining specifications of every Macintosh computer to date – adding Leopard support, and a number of other improvements. In addition to interface improvements, Mactracker now features introductory pricing on each machine's entry in Canadian and US dollars, euros, and pounds sterling, and includes iCal integration to track warranty status for "My Mac model" entries. The developer added a new update engine based on Sparkle, and the app can now search for additional specification items directly from the main window. Mactracker is freeware, but the developer accepts donations for his work on his website for future development.

Also new to MacTracker is an iPhone and iPod touch version, which is accessed directly from http://iphone.mactracker.ca using Safari on the device.
