One thing that I'd love to use if the laptop I take travelling was powerful enough: Cooperative Linux. This is like User Mode Linux, except that it runs on Windows. It's like a free equivalent to VMWare, except that it's also more efficient. (Although perhaps a little harder to install!)
It looks like people are using it in truly weird ways, for example to bootstrap software RAID-5 on Windows.
