Well, in no particular order...

1) Studio16 -- yup, the AD516 stuff. Yes, it's old and hasn't been
updated in a million billion years, but you know what? It WORKS. It has
a great interface for multitrack recording.

2) Directory Opus Magellan II 5.82 -- nuff said. Quite a lifesaver! I
too used to hate it, but I submitted to all the urging of my fellow
Amiga peers...

3) Miami 3.0 -- first used it in 1996, I believe. Haven't upgraded it
since; haven't NEEDED to! Works like a charm; truly a great piece of
Internet software.

4) Photogenics 5 -- yes, a lot of bugs...but...the "Save for Web"
option won me over!

5) Turboprint 7.whatever -- a MUST if you have a color printer! Love
it, love it, love it, love it!

6) Desert Strike -- what's there not to love about this game? Great
graphics, wonderful soundtrack, good sound effects [except for the
British accents! :) ], amazing playability. Loved it on the Sega
Genesis, too.

7) Bubble Heroes -- sorry, I just love those games you can just play
forever without "winning"...always was partial to Tetris and other
falling-objects games....

8) MakeCD -- Pop up a requester, pick a song or file, repeat, burn. Or
even find a song or file, drag'n'drop, repeat, burn. What could be
easier?

9) OctaMED -- IMHO the best way to build a music mod. Wonderful MIDI
support, too.

10) CNet 3.x -- I was never a sysop, but I always loved BBSes that ran
on this software. They were always the easiest to navigate and, in my
opinion, the most fun because of the ANSI color capabilities, "Pfiles," etc.
