Here's the configuration of my developer machine. I'm a .NET and web developer, so only the software relevant to these technologies are part of the list. I also add a few tools I use everyday, but are not directly related to dev. I'm sure I forgot some of the tools I used regularly. If you think I should add something (software/extension/configuration/services), feel free to comment.
