I am using some of the others (TreeDbNotes is always crisp, Keynote-NF [...] AllMyNotes Organizer and AmiPages and Treepad round out most of my standard note group, while considering the TreeProjects and InfoQube in a special categoty, as well as Evernote)-Steven Avery (December 24, 2011, 04:28 PM)

Isn't this a serious problem? You end up with so many note-keepers with only slightly different capabilities, you can never find the note you want because you can't remember which application it's in? Which makes one wonder if keeping notes in plain text or RTF files and using something like BareGrep Pro or a desktop search engine like Archivarius might be the best way to keep information?

Especially in the case of multimedia this and that, there are way too many convertors, etc.
Back to Tree Projects - "gathering and centralizing files and notes" seems to be strong there. Right now, you throw various stuff on the disk and look for it with Total Commander or Everything. Or a drill down navigation system where you keep your "stuff". Maybe TreeProjects is one of the best repositories for finding and jumping back and forth ? (Linkman is possible too, but I have not used it much this way, and it would not be as strong with combining notes.) Is Tree Projects significantly stronger than RightNote here ? Is this helpful enough to fulcrumize the purchase ?
The Tree Projects discount is not "must-jump" and we can ask him for a similar DC special, even for a short period, I really would like to try it out a bit. I think at times he modularized the date entry.. step by step .. a bit too much .. so you have to hit enter or click ok and go to the next step. I find that a bit unusual. That was my main kvetch in my light usage.

As it grows it, hopefully, can index more file types than now so I think TreeProjects goes a long way to organize, tag...and search. I have very little of experience with Rightnote (based on DC recommendations that should change) but I can say that TreeProjects has lasted as my 'info app' longer than most. You make good points about clicks though.
I wouldn't be surprised if the developer (Yaroslav) is receptive to limited deals or discounts for DC, I can write and ask him. I have been in contact with him with questions.
@rjbull, you are right, at times I have thought about abandoning the continued search for PIMs and settling on one, never lasts though

Boy, Steven and tranglos have got me thinking about all these todo programs...
I had never tried ListPro before, I just tried it now. What a strange application! On one hand, it seems very plain. On the other hand, there are some really cool features and itneresting interface ideas there. it's definitely quirky and seems to be well thought out. It's VERY fast. Great outline navigation features, hard to describe, but got it just right. Printing is awful as with all the other ones.
Seriously, what's the deal with printing? Am I the only one who wants to print my lists and take it with me to meetings to show others? Maybe nobody else works away from their computer, I don't know. I think it must be fairly difficult to program a good printing featureset because nobody does it for any of these information managers.
I agree with tranglos, I sue MLO for mostly long-term, serious type of lists. I don't make quickie lists in it. Swift seems to be much better at that (although it seems to have some pretty hardcore database features also).
We'll see where I end up. I'm being more organic in my approach to this PIM software now. I'm not trying to find the best of the best anymore. I let the software come to me as the need arises. I seem to be using mostly these software right now for my information management: Treesheets for brainstorming (brilliant); MLO for serious task lists; RightNote for general note-taking; CHS for capturing all my clipboard content; infoqube for specialized database type of lists like, say, all the songs and albums of a particular artist I like.
