Welcome back to the Mac world, Jim! This may be a good moment to switch. The new iMacs announced today look particularly desirable; as Mrs Simpson observed, you can never be too thin.

Mori is another mid-range, notebook-metaphor data manager. When I had a cursory look at it a few months ago, I thought it might provide more functionality per pound than either NoteTaker or Circus Ponies, but since then the original developer has sold it and it remains to be seen whether the new owner will bring to it the same enthusiasm.

I have used Journler. It’s very capable and nicely-designed donationware, but for me its journalling tools slightly obscured its data management capabilities and I had no use for its multi-media functions.
