The reason it's not in this roundup is because it was about obscure unfamiliar mac applications. Handbrake is well known among mac-users and since that was the audience of the talk at BarcampLondon3 it didn't make this list. @Julien Hebbrecht

The standard setting is to also hide the desktop picture and switch to monochrome. All this to make sure the screen will hurt your eyes less. @kevin

Sometimes the Spotlight indexing mechanism gets borked and doing the re-indexing makes things run *much* better. See the following for the procedure (pretty simple, although again it is CPU intensive for awhile). http://www.macworld.com/article/44599/2005/05/reindexspot.html Another tip: goto Spotlight preferences, set the thing to re-index your entire machine, and then run it overnight.
