SQL Server Power Tools

I have just gone through the process of having to build a stable Vista x64 OS on my new Lenovo T61p laptop - which I must say is very impressive.  Apart from the issues with Groove not completely supporting 64-bit (arghh), I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition (SP2 + hotfix package) and then began thinking about what tools/utilities I use during my day-to-day job and which are a must-have on my laptop.  Below is the list of software which I generally install straight away (I'm sure there other useful tools out there):
