Off hand, I don't know, but check the downloads section of
http://www.apple.com and http://www.versiontracker.com and
http://www.macupdate.com I imagine you'll find something of interest.

I strongly recommend forgetting about the "new-wave hi-tech your kids
can be SMARTER by using a COMPUTER"   thing and buying some workbooks.  
I had great success by going out and getting various "math
supplemental..." type books marked 2 or 3 grades above my kids' current
actual grade.  IMHO it's far easier to work on a table, with a pencil,
and even doing the work on the workbook page right next to the problem
itself, than to fart around with a glitzy computer screen.  

And, btw,  there is no robo-tutor available.  If your kid has a question
about a problem, it will take a human to discuss it with him/her.

Totally agree with all of your points.  And I have the other things
you've mentioned.  I'm just trying to provide multiple avenues toward
learning.

My first computer was an Apple II.  I learned a lot toward studying for
the SATs with it... ;)
