I take this question to mean what software would cause you the greatest pain if it were suddenly unavailable. Here’s my ranking:
1. BrainStormWFO -> MaxThink (ouch)
2. Ubuntu -> Windows or Red Hat (ouch)
3. Skype -> ? (double ouch)
4. Emacs -> VI (learning curve, no org mode)
5. Wordpress -> Blogger or Drupal or something (ouch)
6. Gmail -> Yahoo mail (ouch)
7. Chrome -> Firefox (slower)
8. OpenOffice -> ? (ouch)
9. Google Reader -> ? (lame)
10. Pithos -> ? (lame music)
11. GIMP -> Photoshop (ouch)
I have a suspicion Zoot will make it onto this list once I get around to testing it for tracking my chron tapes.
