I recently bought a Macbook Air 1.8 GHz i7 with OS X 10.7. I decided to document the exact apps I've installed for my personal use and for others to see what I use.
This list is never complete. It will continue to evolve as I installed stuff for myself and find stuff over time. Recommendations welcome :-)
All apps are free unless otherwise noted with price paid at time.
- Xcode
- Cloud
- Blackmagic Disk Speed Test
- Geekbench [$9.99]
- Caffeine
- Linkinus [$9.99]
Some apps here may exist on MAS, but I purchased them previously and continue to use them outside the MAS.

- Dropbox — http://www.dropbox.com/

I used iTerm2 on SL because it had some slight improvements over Terminal. However, Lion's Terminal has resolved the tiny things and is enough for me to simply just use it over iTerm going forward.
