Starting over after a hard drive failure

Last week my hard drive failed and the back-up program did not save my GTD work. I had been using Entourage, but before I began to rebuild my GTD world, I began looking at all of the options that are available, e.g. iGTD, Outlook with plugin, Omni, Things, etc. I run a small law office. I set each client as a project and use GTD to help provide guidance to my staff to keep each client's case on track. If you had to start over, which program would you use?

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
