Macbook Pro 15" 2.66Ghz, 8Gig Ram, 750 Gig HD

Xserve Twin Dual Core 2 Ghz, 8 Gig Ram, 2 x 80 Gig HD + 1 x 500 Gig + Apple Xserve RAID via Fibre Channel
My Image for these machines (Apart from the server) contains the following essential apps:
Yazsoft Speed Download (http://yazsoft.com/products/speed-download/information/): Amazing app that integrates with Safari and is also a nice FTP/iDisk client.
Cocoasoft Pathfinder (http://www.cocoatech.com/): This is what the Finder should become...
Acrylic Wallet (http://www.acrylicapps.com/wallet/): I keep ALL my secure info in this App, and it syncronises between all the Macs and my iPhone.... Love it!!
Blacktree Quicksilver Nahh scrub that. Replaced with Launchbar as it's still supported and can be made to act just like Quicksilver.
Conceited Software Linkinus (http://conceitedsoftware.com/products/linkinus): Lovely/Polished IRC Client.
JollyfastVNC (http://www.jinx.de/JollysFastVNC.html): Just as it says..super speedy, lightweight VNC Client.
Evernote (http://www.evernote.com/): This holds all the other info I can't keep in wallet easily. And just like it syncs great between Computers and iphone etc...
Adium (http://adium.im/): THE Messenger client on the mac. Integrates with skype via 3rd party addon.
TimeMachineEditor (http://timesoftware.free.fr/timemachineeditor/): Make Time Machine work when YOU want it too!!

Hi,
I'm Lauren from Springpad. Since I saw that you were posting about your experience using Evernote, I thought I'd let you know about Springpad (http://springpadit.com) which is similar to Evernote in that you can upload any notes or clip websites and access all your stuff online or on your phone. But, we take it a step further by putting all the info you store to work for you in our free apps. For example, you can save recipes from any website and then have them all neatly organized in your recipe box (http://springpadit.com/appdirectory/aboutapp/recipebox) and then use our free meal planner app to create a dinner plan and a complete list of ingredients. You can also keep track of all your wine notes (http://springpadit.com/appdirectory/aboutapp/winenotebook), keep a list of restaurants you want to try (http://springpadit.com/appdirectory/aboutapp/restauranttracker) or easily store all your travel plans like confirmation numbers, maps, places to go, etc (http://springpadit.com/appdirectory/aboutapp/tripplanner). You can also set alarms to send emails or text reminders. Other great apps include a budget tracker, a meeting notebook, a holiday gift planner, a date night planner, and other useful tools to help people get organized. Would love to get your feedback or do a demo for you!
Hi Lauren,
Ok I'll take a look and let you know what I think.. I'm pretty deep into Evernote though... we'll see.
