This isn’t as crucial as the above items, but I use it on a regular basis for interviews and meetings, so I usually need it within a day or two of getting a new computer.

I sync my Notational data via Dropbox, so as soon as I install this and point it to the Notational data in Dropbox, I have all my info at my fingertips. My note-taking app (a fork of the great Notational Velocity), I throw all bits of text and other info in here, put to-do and idea lists, things to try, wishlists, bucket lists, etc. Makes my work so much easier, and I find myself wishing I had already installed it, almost immediately upon getting a new Mac. Turns little snippets of text into commonly used code, emails, signatures, urls, etc. Installing Launchbar means I move a lot faster on the new computer. Makes it super fast to launch files and other things I use a lot. Once I install this, I have almost everything I need. Use this or a similar password manager (Lastpass, KeePass) so you never forget your password again, and don’t have to re-use passwords, a practice that is very insecure. I store all my passwords here, so I need this asap when I get a new computer. Much better than Safari, and I use it for almost everything. These are the first pieces of software I install on a new Mac, in order:
I share this list with the hope that it will be useful to a few people who get new Macs. These are really just notes for myself, because I always have to remember what to install when I get a new Mac (I pass old ones down to my wife and kids when they are no longer fast enough to run my business).
