Holy crap, blast from the past right there. I can't remember that show but I know I used to watch it as a kid.

Windiff is one of his most used tools for comparing files and directories. Jeffrey also relies heavily on process monitor from sysinternals. Also imgburn is a great tool for creating iso files, and writing them to disks.

I tried Terminals but didn't like it for some reason that I can't now remember, I think mremote had an issue on W7 x64 which was why I was looking.

Insofar as tracking technical documents, problem fixes and handy utilities, I find that a copy of my own browser with the Sync Add-In is absolutely invaluable, and without it the pooch would be proverbially screwed. (it's also really cool how FF Sync tracks your browsing history from machine to machine, really handy when I am hot-desking and fancy reading the sports news!)
