I don't have that much stuff, so I just use the command line usually.  :)
I should check out Norton or other utilities sometimes...  I also use an

I use couple of shareware editors, and Turbo/Pascal/C++.

There has to be, but I don't do things that my GS can't do.  :->

My friend tried Simcity before, and got it to work somewhat, the graphics
was really bad tho, and it was hard to tell what was what...

That have big PC archives...  try ftp.cica.indiana.edu:pub/pc
, that's the only one I have.
