Chocolatey makes installing easy...

Just been building a new Win8 image and I thought I would use Chocolatey to install the apps I typically use for development, you know things like Notepad++, 7Zip, Sysinternals, PuTTY, msysgit...

I got to say Chocolatey is awesome great!

I can't believe the .Net Windows community hadn't got round to this before...
Once Chocolatey is installed it's really simple to get stuff installed, simple as typing one line in PS:
Chocolatey will download the required package\installer and run what ever is required to get it installed, e.g. this is Chocolatey download loading and installing ILMerge:
