School-House is very good. People may be interested in looking at Journier as an information manager. It has a fantastic set of features and links up with the iLife media, can add voice recording, video and photos. I use it to capture web content when researching - just print to pdf and send to Jounier. Other applications worth a look are iGTD and Ganttproject.

For virtualisation, I just wanted to add Crossover http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxmac/ which is probably the most convenient way of using say Ms Outlook rather than flicking to Parallels. It's up to version 6.1 now and has a lot of software in its Windows database that you can use. I thought Apple might buy them out and put it in Leopard.

May I add Snapz Pro for screen captures etc... Used it recently for a lesson I did with my students that was captured then added as a podcast. An overview of this is on my website under the latest podcast. Can I also suggest school-house... created by a student for students to keep track of school work etc. Cheers, Brett A great list of apps… May I add Snapz Pro for screen captures etc… Used it recently for a lesson I did with my students that was captured then added as a podcast.
