Any good tools for switching?
Are there any good tools for listing your current programs, maybe exporting settings etc. Listing hidden settings and save locations would be great too.
I'm about 90% ready to switch to Linux full time, and I want to make sure that I've got everything. I've got a horrible feeling that I'm missing something, but I can't think what it might be.
EDIT: Ironically, I forgot to mention my ADHD / memory issues. I could do with a tool like this because I forget about anything that I'm not currently using, or actively thinking about using soon >.<

It tends to be one of the most regularly mentioned reasons for staying on Windows. It can't run natively, and whenever I've read about Photoshop in a VM, it's been from someone saying that the performance is awful.
Don't misunderstand me, this is one case where I'd love to be wrong. Photoshop is probably 99% of what's keeping me on the dark side. Being able to use it in Linux without a major performance penalty would be fantastic :)
Yes, if you run a non optimized VM everything will be slow. It took me few weeks at start to discover all optimisation options for qemu/kvm and then years of perfecting it to make it run very close to bare metal
Edit: the key is to pass through one of your graphic cards
Does that mean I need more than one graphics card? I've just got the one.
Depends, does your CPU has already one?
It doesn't, no. I've got a micro ATX motherboard too, so no room for a second one there
