PuTTY was nice -- I used it for a while, but it had its limitations -- that's OK, it's free software. So I ended up trying SecureCRT and loved it -- I probably paid for it after using it less than a week.

I could ramble on about features and ease of use, but for me the bottom line is, whatever you're doing, working on the computer, splitting wood, cooking dinner, doing some demolition, driving a motorcycle or skiing, it's fantastic to have really nice equipment. It just works, it doesn't break, it doesn't get in your way, it doesn't fight with you or fail when it's inconvenient. It just works.

I like that. I really like that.
