Another vote here for OneNote 2007. It’s remarkably flexible and “ergonomic.” I keep it open all day. It’s a gigantic program, but its resource usage does not seem worse than other “PIM” programs. It works well with other programs. A year ago, if I could pick only one program, I probably would have said a top-of-the-line text editor. But for me, now, it’s OneNote, and I don’t even use its Tablet PC functions. I might also add that I now have tons of information in OneNote and it’s not (yet) choking on it.

OneNote 2007 by a considerable margin. For connectivity and functionality. They’ve now got tables as well which is something that I don’t think was mentioned previously.
As I’ve commented before, you can just start using it without much of a learning curve, although there is extra power there if you need it.

Only one?! Then I vote for Omea Pro. It has a bit of everything I need.

Only one software program? That’s easy: give me a compiler, and I can use it to make any other tools I need. ;-)
You probably intended to ask a narrower question, but I think it’s worth noting that tool-building tools are the best of all.

Thank you all for your interesting and clever answers!
Here is the current status of the poll:
(The number of votes is written within the brackets)
Ultra Recall (4)
One Note 2007 (3)
ECCO (2)
do-organizer (1)
ADM (1)
InfoSelect (1)
Visual Foxpro (database system) (1)
Alpha Five (database system) (1)
Access (database system) (1)
Compiler (1)
Omea Pro (1)
I don’t see the number of votes as an indication for quality or so.
I think this poll just reflects how diverse the working and thinking behaviors are.
