To continue the theme I started in my last post (and to try to jumpstart my blogging again), here are the apps I consider most useful:

1. Mindjet MindManager Pro – I use this for everything from task tracking to software design to article writing.
2. Microsoft Outlook 2003 – do i need to say anything about this one?
3. Sharpreader – I love it until it consumes 150mb+ of RAM.
4. Virtual PC – couldn’t be a software developer without it.
5. Adobe Photoshop – Tried the gimp…didn’t like it.
