I'm going to leave out literature and media, it would get too confusing and nit picky. You can't put a price on knowledge anyway, right? Also I'm leaving out glue, it would just get too messy to leave it in (get it? ha!)

Office Computer

Since we are dual booting I thought I'd keep track of all of the other tweaks on the office computer

Start up Manager

sudo apt-get install startupmanager

Handbrake
-for ripping DVDs
Virtualbox
-for running windows

It seems like it was only yesterday (Jaunty)

So you just popped in a disc for Jaunty 9.04 , let's get to it.

We want DVDs to work perfectly so let's get this out of the way
terminal:

sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/jaunty.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install gnome-mplayer

sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install w32codecs libdvdcss2

sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer

All the goodies

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

then repeat from previous posts.
Most notably I would go for:

• Songbird
• Picassa
• Vuze
  
• 7zip
  
• Gmail hack for firefox
