  • Liked MSysGit 2 Oct 2012

    MSysGit on Windows is also quite nice in that it comes with a ton of standard gnu tools which are nice to have.

  • Uses GIMP 2 Oct 2012

    I'll use GIMP for many image editing tasks (for me, this usually is just making test images for themes, or making small tweaks to existing images). I prefer Photoshop but find it to be ridiculously overpriced, and I am terrible with either of them anyway and will let the professionals make things.

  • Liked PNGCrush 2 Oct 2012

    PNGCrush is a good tool, I usually use it to expand PNGs to be uncompressed, using "pngcrush -f 0 -m 1 -l 0 -force".

  • Loved Microsoft Natural Keyboard 2 Oct 2012

    I prefer to type on the original (circa 1998) PS2 Microsoft Natural Keyboard (not the Elite! The Elite's arrow keys are not inverted-T, and it is unusable).

  • Liked Steam 2 Oct 2012

    Steam: I don't play very many games but Steam really makes it easy to buy/install games without having to have physical discs or worry about copy protection being installed.

  • Disliked QuickBooks 2007 2 Oct 2012

    As much as it pains me I use QuickBooks 2007 for bookkeeping. It is awful, so I installed it on a Windows XP virtual machine some years ago, used with Virtual Box.

  • Loved ClipX 2 Oct 2012

    For Windows development, a completely awesome tool is ClipX, which is a free clipboard manager written by my friend Francis Gastellu, however he still has not fixed the Windows User Object leak that occurs when you open the paste menu (*cough* Francis ahem *cough*).

  • Loved git 2 Oct 2012

    Git is completely awesome and at this point I'd be lost without it.
