None of you said 3DS Max... I find that surprising.

My favorite apps are

Autodesk Maya (http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=7635018[/url)
- She's not Max, making her not a douche.
- In all honesty, she's an extremely easy program to pickup and start modeling in if you already know the basics of 3D.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/?promoid=BPDEK)
-Industry standard.
-Really easy to use once you get past the interface.

iTunes (http://www.apple.com/itunes/)
-Really easy to organize my music.
-Smart Playlists = win
-Can play music off my iPod while plugged into the PC

Flock Web Browser (http://www.flock.com/)
-It's an alternative web browser by Mozilla, basically it's Firefox with the social integration and some incompatible stuff.

Itunes

-See next

Zune
-My first alternative that I stuck with for two years, was simple, not too difficult to handle (the hardware was a different story for a while).
-See previous post
