- Unfortunately, Windows Explorer for the majority of my photographs (because UR does not really support thumbnails)
- ListPro for my ToDo lists (UR for me isn't good on simple ToDo lists in spread-sheet type format)
- Personal Information Keeper from High Criteria for phrases and passwords
- And now I also have considerable data in GMail. (Maybe I should periodically import all my GMail data, but it seems like hard work).
I have a vision that in another ten years time all my data really will be in one place, but in truth I doubt it!

I agree with you on gmail, and photos ... but for the rest, nope
if you even slithtly want to have all your data in one place ... UR has no problems with
- quick scratching
- ToDO
- phrases and passwords
I really don't find your arguments strong enough to not use UR ;-)
maybe if you elaborate a little bit more why in each of those cases UR is considerable less efficient comparing to another products you mention
You have to look at it globally and put all the variables in equation. Maybe you save few seconds when doing inserts, but you loose much more when you try to get some outputs. For me, that fact that I have all those things in one place greatly overweights the little advantage I'd gain in using more specialized soft. The fact that I can search and crosslink in one place is a huge gain
