Word Processor Roundup / Re: 3rd Party Tools like Bibliography Addins

I definitely rely on endnote x, but the main reason isn't citation and bibliography.
Instead, I find it to be a fantastic database system. Each record contains (a) the obvious bibliography information, often downloaded automatically through the "connect" feature; (b) my research notes on the source; and (c) the actual source if I downloaded it or scanned it into my computer. In fact, every single document I download and plan to use is now stored in EndNote (nearly a thousand journal articles).
Until other "bibliography" software catches up with such features, I think EndNote will be hard to beat.
