Keeping Track of All of Your Tasks?

An anonymous reader asks: "I work for a Fortune 500 Company as a Unix sysadmin and at any given time I may be working with 10 different project teams, each with their own milestones, tasks/to-dos, notes and reportable status. I'm constantly losing track of tasks that I need to do, notes I've taken and status reports that I've written. I've tried paper solutions, PDAs, Microsoft Project and groupware type stuff and nothing really seems designed to allow me to track mulitple project with mulitple tasks and to-dos as well as keep up with the status and notes that I generate from each of these tasks. How do you keep it all straight?"

    But I was just reading Microsoft's Project 2003 website, and they clearly indicate they have the right solution to meet all your project management needs:
    Whether you manage projects independently or need a solution to align people and the objectives of your organization, the Microsoft Office Project 2003 product offerings have the right solution to meet your project management needs.
    You are clearly doing something wrong. Maybe you did not look hard enough for Microsoft's solution to your problem.
