Best bridge card game for Mac

I'm looking for a really good Bridge (card game) app to play against on the computer and learn the game. Anything out there that works with Leopard?
Also, a good online site would be great as well. Thanks!

Having tried a number of bridge programs over the years, I have yet to find one that bids and plays well enough to let even a beginner learn about the game. I understand there are some PC versions that are somewhat better, but not one Mac program.
If I may suggest, however, playing online with other people who are interested in learning is a much better way to go about it, plus it is much more social. [OKBridge|http://www.okbridge.com] is an online bridge club that has been around since [1990|http://www.okbridge.com/new-signup/deployed/about.php] (yeah, it's about as old as the Internet) and has 13,000 members all over the world. I've played at tables with players from four different continents! There are complete beginners and world champions, and a wonderful friendly atmosphere.
Sad to say, [Pogo|http://www.pogo.com], while free, does not have the same ability to sustain a beginner. You can play, but be prepared to endure frustration. I play chess and backgammon on Pogo, but the bridge rooms are sorely lacking, and the level of play is terrible.

  • Is there a bridge card game course

    I am new to this. I am looking for a bridge card game course. Is there one? iPad, iPhone iMac
    Thanks

    I do not recommend FunBridge it may be ok to play online but I used it for training on my Mac.  It clearly states unlimited deals for Solo Training but cut me off.  Said I  "had no more deals, Do you want to buy some?"
    I am a beginner & enjoyed practicing with it tho it has some glitches.  When I tried to communicate with them they would not accept message saying I had an incompatble OS.  Despite the fact I was in FunBrdige for Mac & checked proper OS.  When I tried to complain on the review site they deleted my message & accepted only the rating. (I guess as I got a thank you).   Something is wrong when you have no avenue for communication.
    I tried FunBridge on my iPhone 4S and it plays the cards so slowly it is no fun. So I can't recommend it either.

  • What's the Best Business-Card Scanner for Leopard?

    What's the best business-card scanner for the Mac, using Leopard? Anyone currently using one or know of one? Or two?
    Thank you,

    You might check the computer software section at a local Half-Price Books store, sometimes they have some new in-box Mac OS 9 software.
    Some kid games that I used to have were Freddi Fish, Pajama Sam, and the Backyard Sports series from Humongous Entertainment, they run pretty well on an old G3.
    Pangea had a demo version of Nanosaur:
    http://www.pangeasoft.net/nano/files.html but it may require a good 3D video card.
    Freeverse has a link to the original version of Wingnuts that should work in OS 9 on this page

    I don't know if it's best but I bought a Targus High Speed SD/SDHC/MMC reader from WalMart. It's small, great for traveling, and plugs into a USB port.  Works very well.  About $10 as I recall.

  • What is the best word processing program for mac?

    What is the best word processing program for Mac?

    That's an impossible question to answer - what type of writing will you be doing?
    Before we can point you in a direction you need to tell us what kind of writing you will be doing. As phrased, the question is a bit like "what's the best car?" Well few would doubt that a Ferrari is superior to a Honda minivan, but the Ferrari will not much use if you're dragging 4 kids, two dogs and the grandparents along.
    Academic?
    Word is the nearest thing to a standard format in the Humanties, but in the sciences and math you'll find Tex more useful for laying out formulas. The older Pages is quite good as a substitute for Word in many cases in the Humanties, but you'll have big problems with citations in the newer version. Apps like Nisus Writer Pro and Mellel are more powerful than Pages, but each have shortcomings. Scrivener and Ulysses are excellent drafting tools but you'll need a Word Processor for final layout. There are lots and lots of lightweight editors out there - Byword, iaWriter (and Writer Pro), OmmWriter - that have little functional use in Academic settings - poor or no support for citations for instance, or poor or no interoperability with Word - but which might be excellent for other uses.
    So, back to the key question: what kind of writing will you be doing?

  • What's the best duplicates finder application for Mac OS X?

    What's the best duplicates finder application for Mac OS X?

    Thank you both!  I ended up going for DupeGuru because it was free and it worked well.   Easy Duplicate Finder baited me with the promise of free download then when the search was over I got the "buy the software" if I wanted to delete more than 10 files.
    DupeGuru worked well and so far I have not been asked for money.
    This solves my question.

  • What's the best FTP server software for Mac OS X Server?

    What's the best FTP server software for Mac OS X Server?
    We have looked at a few different applications out there (Rumpus, CrushFTP, etc...) and are wondering what the community feels.
    Apples built -in isn't robust enough. We do need some advanced features (reporting, SFTP, a web interface would be nice etc...).
    Opinions?

    Hi
    For me it has to be RumpusFTP Server:
    http://www.maxum.com/Rumpus/
    It has a secure web interface - no need to open ports 20, 21. No need for dedicated FTP client software for uploading and downloading. Supports the most commonly used browsers. Multi-platform support and can be installed on a standard client OS.

    Handbrake to copy to avi or mp4(I use it for watching my DVD's on the go, so my battery lasts for a longer time)
    I think MP4 is better quallity.
    To copy a DVD: simply use Toast (maybe withe popcorn, but I don't use it).

    A backup.
    After that's there's the usual list, DataRescue, FileSalvage. General reading on this topic - http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/datarecovery.html  It would help to know the actual problem since sometimes a straight answer to this kind of question isn't always the way to a solution to the real issue.

  • Best Screen Recording Software for Mac?

    Looking for recommendations on a good computer screen recording program, as I'm trying to make a tutorial video, and need to be able to record what I am doing on my computer screen.
    Would prefer free, but don't mind paying a bit - quality is most important. Any advice would be appreciated - thanks!

    2nd vote:
    without doubt - Screenflow
    why ?
    because, it is not only a 'grabber', but it includes an 'editor', drop-dead-simple as iMovie, which includes many features ESPECIALLY made for tutorials - e.g. you can zoom-in after recording without quality-loss, you can change cursor-size, highlite, 'print' pressed keys on screen, add a pic-in-pic (if you like your face in your tuts ) ..
    side-note: screen-grabs are off the standards, iM or FinalCut/express support! so, a built-in editor is a ++ ! (the exports/uploads from a SF-project are superb!)
    not cheap, but worth every cent!

  • What is the best investment tracking software for macs?

    what is the best investment tracking software for macs?

    Three issues to consider about an external HD:
    1. Connectivity. In other words, USB 2.0 and Firewire. If you intend to move large chunks of data at once, such as when streaming audio or video for professional applications, then Firewire is better suited for that. Otherwise, for normal applications, USB is ok.
    2. RPMs. In other words, how fast the HD platter spins around. Most consumer HD have a 5400 rpm (rotations per minute) speed. Some HD have a 7200 or even 10,000 rpm spec. The faster the rotation, the faster the access time, the faster information on the HD can be accessed. Not a critical factor unless you deal with audio or video.
    3. Brand. In other words, reliability. Best ones, form my experience, are Seagate and Western Digital. Go for Seagate if you can. I've never had any issues with a Seagate drive. You can also go to your local computer shop and they will have separate drives and enclosures, so you can customize the look and connectivity of your HD.
