Minimalist champions 8/5/2013

Two-pane PIM for Windows. Jot Plus. Trivially simple to learn/use. Uses rtf and supports Web links, but not tables or images (but has links to images).. Regrettably, development is moribund.

I am winnowing my stable of PIMs. I have NoteCase Pro, but have never used it. Here's the question: Does NoteCase Pro have any unusual features that makes it worth keeping? Thanks for the help.
