machines can be headless (no kb/mouse), for use remotely or in
my office.

Outlook makes starting an online meeting/conference call one click.

I don't think Roundtable devices are for sale anymore, and they don't always
work which is really annoying, but they work most of the time and make
conference calls with video and lots of people _really_ good.

Screen sharing over Lync isn't super amazing (I don't even think you can go
full screen) but it's so convenient I use it frequently.

Presence is baked into everything really well, so if you're actually using MS
for everything you will get presence everywhere. It's also pretty good about
being more than just presence, so you get pictures/avatars, online status,
location, out-of-office messages/status, quick links to start an email/IM/etc.

As for non-MS software, I really like using Sublime Text as a code navigator.
It has _AMAZING_ performance when browsing code on a network share. I can load
all the MS Office code from a remote development machine, over the network,
into Sublime Text and the file-search works within seconds. I have no idea how
it indexes all the files so quickly.

One of the most surprising things I have seen at Mozilla is the use of
Bugzilla, its still mostly black magic and its terrible as a tool for non
familiar people to file and find bugs, but as a company wide source of truth
for most issues from event relations, it issues to plain bugs and project
management its actually ... good.

And its usually pretty hard to say anything nice about Bugzilla.

I started contributing to Mozilla lately and I'm amazed how good Bugzilla has
become compared to when I last tried to use it (around 5 years ago). I'm also
amazed at how effective Mozilla works with it.
