I write on a 17" MacBook Pro from 2007.
While I'm working, I'm usually listening to music through a pair of Sennheiser HD201 headphones, which sound good, feel pretty comfortable, and cost about $20.
While writing I turn off the Internet using Freedom.
Productivity
I wrote The Unknowns in Microsoft Word.
LaunchBar is the proverbial First Thing I Install.
I was an obsessive Quicksilver user back in the day, and then I switched to LaunchBar during that dark period when QS wasn't being supported.
Cultured Code's Things basically runs my life.
