Ninite Easy PC Setup and Multiple App Installer - Great For Win7 Upgrades

By John on November 11, 2009 3:47 PM | No Comments

So, I'm in the course of rebuilding my home PC and finding out how out of date it is.

Oh well. One of the things I used to do was keep a flash drive of setup apps handy but I haven't kept up on it and those are very out of date.

Then I found Ninite. It does a lot of the searching for the latest app business for you. Granted, it doesn't let you pick where you want to install stuff so that doesn't really work for me all the way (I like my apps on a separate partition) but if nothing else, it's a great short list on what apps I *do* want put on my box.

Check it out if you find a need for such a tool in a pinch.
