Nice to see that someone else has moved over to the Dark Side. I'm in an
all Windows lab and it gets kind of lonely here.

On the writing front-I have tried several different pieces of software(I
am a CRIMPer after all.)and I have always come back to Microsoft Word.
It may not be the best, but I have used it for so long that I am used to
its quirks. I've used it since it was a DOS program. And it remains the
lingua franca of word processors. I do use Ulysses if I want something
that is as plain text as it can be. I tried Scrivener and haven't taken
to it.
On the information managment front, I use Papers 2.7.2 to keep my pdfs
in line. It works great if you need to keep track of a literature, and
for generating bibliographies I think that it is better than Endnote. I
have the iOS version on my iPAd and it works great. Don't buy version 3
of Papers. They bolloxed it all up. I also use Devonthink Pro Office to
keep track of stuff that doesn't fit into Papers.
For notetaking, I use Notesuite. It has a nice, clean interface, and it
is easy to use on both the Mac and iOS. I used to be an avid user of
Onenote on the PC, and I have tried several of the Mac/iOS versions of
software that purport to be like Onenote. Including Onenote now that
Microsoft has released it for other platforms. I don't like them as well
as I do Notesuite, but if they keep improving it I may switch back to
Onenote. I like the way you can organize your stuff in Onenote better
than I do Notesuite.
