MacDevCenter on DEVONthink. A nice juicy ad for DEVONthink Pro.

I often fantasize about quitting my job to be a freelancer—a freelance anything, really—just so I could use my Mac for all of my computing tasks. As it stands, I have to cobble together network-accessible solutions for notes, ideas and outlines, and nothing I've tried so far (commercial, third-party or homebrew) has really fit the bill. At home, I still flit between OmniOutliner and DevonThink as possibilities for managing my info, but I'll never really figure out what actually works if I don't get a chance to immerse myself in a system and use it for everything.

I'd speculate about whether DevonThink would even be necessary if Mac OS X—Finder in particular—were doing its job, but I'm nowhere near able to comment because I haven't had a chance to truly play the game.
