Coop,
Those would be good choices if I was making notes for clients or people.
I'm thinking more about notes for myself. I tend to find myself looking
into a certain software project, and then having to drop it for a period
of time. When I come back to it I have to re-learn some of what I
learned before. Up until now I've tried to keep text file notes on these
projects but it seems cumbersome.
