Software
Building that new machine? Tired of downloading, installing, rebooting, - and starting over for the next one? Maybe you need one of the super loaders.
Start with having a look at Ninite Easy PC Setup. Ninite lets you pick from current versions of popular apps across several categories to let you automatically download and install the apps you select. So pick your favorite Browsers, Instant Messengers, media players, office productivity suites, browser plugins, system utilities, and more. You can pick any or all the apps you want and then click on the Get Installer button to get your install package.
Another similar service is available from Allmyapps. Allmyapps bills itself as the "Application Store for Windows XP, Vista and Seven to find and install the best applications". This site features an even larger set of apps to choose from.
Give these a shot and let us know the pros and cons of how they worked for you in the comments. 14871

Thanks for the tip on these websites. I took a look at Ninite and it had a good number of the programs I use. I suggested several more. It is great to have one-stop shopping.
