[House of Plot] "Otto"

I'm thinking of rebuilding "Otto" - you know, the PC that sits in the corner sharing files across our network and keeping people awake? This means I'll be putting everything we want to keep elsewhere for a bit, reformatting its hard drive and starting again.

If I was to do this, what software do we actually need on it? I'll probably make it an XP machine again and stick Word & Excel on there... it'll obviously have winamp and media player on it, along with a couple of other video players that require a little less oomph to run. I'll be sticking RPGSoundMixer on it again because it's too cool to leave off...

But what else would be handy? The machine's a bit of a cranky old bugger these days, and isn't really much cop for fancy multimedia things beyond playing music, although the rebuild should pick it up a bit.
