If you had just moments to load up your USB pin drive with only a few of your favorite tools, what would you take with?

I would have to have:
- FireFox with Web Developer extension (love the live css editor and page structure info it provides)
- EditPlus (awesome text editor with sftp built-in)
- Beyond Compare by ScooterSoftware (incredible file comparison utility with remote ftp to ftp comparison!)
- PuTTY (can't forget my ssh client!)

If I had the time, I'd add on Bitvise Tunnelier for miraculously easy ssh tunneling.

Well, sadly I lost my $80 usb drive on a vacation trip in Mexico, recently. hehe

Anyway, HTML-Kit is my main weapon of choice. Most other tools I use, are online; browsershots, color palette generators, font pickers, etc. Oh, and how could I forget my beloved W3Schools.
