These tools are the ones I want to use, but for lack of funds, time, or knowledge, I haven't been able to incorporate into my practices:

• FinalBuilder - http://www.finalbuilder.com
• NAnt - http://nant.sourceforge.net
• NUnit - http://www.nunit.org
• Rhino Mocks - http://www.ayende.com/projects/rhino-mocks.aspx
• Help & Manual - http://www.ec-software.com
• CruiseControl.NET - http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CCNET/Welcome+to+CruiseControl.NET
• Direct Access - http://www.nagarsoft.com

I'm just amazed at the sheer number of programs that I'm using. I'm pretty sure I left out some, since I did this from memory. A couple of these are just way too expensive at this time. I'm  hoping to purchase them with the proceeds of the sales from the first version of PainlessSVN. This is one of the few disadvantages of growning a company organically.

I have been making a habit to purchase applications and apps from microISVs. I also check the Business of Software forums and Larkware News for other microISVs for tools that could make my life easier.
