About My Software

I format a lot... I run Windows XP and as such every month or so I like to format the computer to keep it running so fresh and so clean. However the reinstall can be a pain, so I decided to take what steps I could to streamline the process. A nice list of all the software I run so I can easily get updates seemed like it would do the trick nicely.

This also comes in handy when people ask me what software I run. :) Hopefully at some point soon I can write reviews for some of this software as it's really good stuff.
