You’re a smart guy, figure it out!

In order to be productive you need to find “matching” software. Below is the list that worked out for me. Development Software is outlined in a separate post.

• Outlook — Entourage 2008 (see my previous post)
• Windows Live Writer (blogging software) — Ecto. Very capable alternative with a few nice features, but issues with multi-level bullets. All posts about “Switching to Mac” are created using Ecto
• Remote Desktop — Microsoft developed Mac version
• Roboform (password manager) — 1password
  • You can read reviews here
  • It is also able to import most of Roboform data
• Evernote is available on Mac
• SnagIt — Jing. Free product from the same vendor. Simple and handles most tasks.
• ZoneAlarm (or any other firewall) — Little Snitch.
