Must have OS X software

PicasaAll I can say is congratulations to the two million people that bought OS X leopard in the last four days since release. I too found myself craving Leopard. My wife and I made a trip to the local Compusa, the night of release, with the intent to purchase Leopard for her Macbook. With the apple goodies being so close, we left with a new little addition to our apple family - a Mac mini. Its going to be a nice little media center/server. Now we’re graced with as many Leopard machines as we have XP machines.

In celebration I have compiled a list of software I find essential for each new Mac that joins our family. The list after the break:
1. Firefox -Many love Safari, but using Firefox and foxsync makes it easy for me to work on different platforms with easy transition.
2. QuickSilver - A simple and efficient way to launch applications.
3. VLC - Your all in one solution for a media player.
4. Hand Brake - DVD ripping made easy and free.
5. Cyberduck - If you ever use an FTP client, give Cyberduck a try. I’ve really grown to love it.
6. Picasa - A simple image editing and viewing software put out by Google.
7. Transmission -  P2p made easy. Very clean and simple - the way it should be.
