Microsoft Office website has a bunch of free Excel templates for staff scheduling. The Weekly Employee Shift Schedule Template (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/results.aspx?qu=scheduling#ai:TC030004799|) can schedule up to 20 employees and 9 shifts. Work hours and labor costs are automatically computed based on shift assignments and labor rates.

Great list — dropbox might be a good add (I’ve only used personally – not sure if its an enterprise app).

Good list. Here’s some comments:
Operating System (instead of Windows) – Ubuntu — I don’t use Linux, but I’ve heard good thing about Linux Mint — and some seem to prefer it to Ubuntu

Image Editing (instead of PhotoShop) – GIMP — Gimp is probably the best Photoshop replacement, but if you want something simpler, I really like Paint.net

Free Security Software Suite — Honestly, Microsoft’s free “Microsoft Security Essentials” is your best bet now.

again.. great list.
