New Mac Version of Family Tree Maker By Year's End

When Family Tree Maker first came on the scene to challenge other genealogy software in the late 1990s, it produced a PC and a MAC version. After one update an announcement was made that the MAC version would be discontinued much to the chagrin of MACaphiles who continued to see the genealogy software choices dwindle. Fortunately, this May, at 2010 National Genealogical Family Historical Conference held in Salt Lake City, Ancestry.com announced the revival of Family Tree Maker for MAC which hopefully is still on schedule to be released by the end of this year. A formal release date is yet to be made public. But as the time approaches and MAC addicts patiently wait, it will be a welcome addition to MAC genealogy software.
