Transmit BBEdit NeoOffice Chicken of the VNC iPodRip Indigo Think
comments:Transmit is the best--I use it to sync content locally and across the network--hands down the best FTP. NeoOffice works great as an Office suite, Chicken of the VNC is a good remote desktop client, and Indigo, while the most expensive sw here, is the best software for home automation (INSTEON, x10)
bundled apps:
Safari Terminal AppleScript Apache PHP
comments: lots of great stuff included in OS X that can be easily turned on by changin some configs. Terminal is a killer app!
Utilities:
Airport Admin Utility Network Utility
notes: wrappers for command line configs, these make life easy.
for anyone who doesn't know the backstory, she is the widow of faux hippie turned politician Sonny Bono, who is best known for:
The Copyright Term Extension Act of 1998--alternatively known as the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act or pejoratively as the Mickey Mouse Protection Act--extended copyright terms in the United States by 20 years. Before the act (under the Copyright Act of 1976), copyright would last for the life of the author plus 50 years, or 75 years for a work of corporate authorship; the act extended these terms to life of the author plus 70 years and 95 years respectively. The act also affected copyright terms for copyrighted works published prior to January 1, 1978, increasing their term of protection by 20 years as well. This effectively 'froze' the advancement date of the public domain in the United States for works covered by the older fixed term copyright rules. Under this act, no additional works made in 1923 or afterwards that were still copyrighted in 1998 will enter the public domain until 2019...
Bono said in May 2006 that she depended on royalties from Sonny Bono's estate to supplement her US$165,200 congressional salary in order pay her son's college expenses. In addition, in 2006, it was reported that she had received $30,000 from the later-indicted Jack Abaramoff.[7][8] In her official 2005 filing, Bono stated that her income from royalties and dividends was between US$402,000 and US$3.3 million
Ballmer can wave his arms and throw chairs, but I'd take Linux over Windows any day in a fine-tooth IP examination of the source code.
There are more than a few skeletons in the MS closet waiting to be discovered.

and here's something from her entry in Wikipedia:
Bono said in May 2006 that she depended on royalties from Sonny Bono's estate to supplement her US$165,200 congressional salary in order pay her son's college expenses. In addition, in 2006, it was reported that she had received $30,000 from the later-indicted Jack Abaramoff.[7][8] In her official 2005 filing, Bono stated that her income from royalties and dividends was between US$402,000 and US$3.3 million
