In addition to the MX Revolution mouse I just mentioned: Total Commander - replacement for Windows Explorer, FTP client, among other things. It took me a while to warm up to it, but now I won't work without it.
NoteTab - My favorite text editor because I can automate a bunch of text editing and creation tasks by using macros and other little utilities. Dual monitors - absolutely wouldn't want to be without. I'm trying to figure out how to justify this at home, but I spend so little time on the home computer.
