SharePoint 2010 SharePoint Sizer Tool
HP has a pretty cool tool for SharePoint Architects, download it here.
http://h20338.www2.hp.com/activeanswers/Secure/548230-0-0-0-121.html
HP Sizer for Microsoft SharePoint is a complimentary planning resource that encapsulates knowledge gained from extensive performance characterization of Office SharePoint Server 2007 and SharePoint 2010 in the HP Alliances Performance and Solutions labs, widespread collaboration between HP and Microsoft, and numerous SharePoint performance whitepapers produced by HP engineering. The Sizer offers a quick and consistent methodology for determining and comparing configurations, as well as detailed, customizable server and storage solutions complete with bill of materials and pricing.
HP Sizer for Microsoft SharePoint solicits data or uses built-in defaults to determine optimal configurations based on SharePoint deployment best practices. Selectable configurations include entry level, highly available, and application optimized solutions. A "what if" feature allows rapid comparison of the effects of workload changes, platform and storage technology selection, and provides role-based server configurations, capacity utilization, and estimated network traffic. Users can select a configuration and then customize their environment by adding or substituting components within best-practice guidelines.
The tool also addresses one of the most critical areas of SharePoint server design: performance and capacity planning for the storage subsystem. Its storage sizing and configuration capabilities offer detailed best-practice storage volume and RAID recommendations to support database and content storage needs using HP direct-attach storage, HP StorageWorks MSA or EVA Storage SAN solutions.

Configure NLB as normal on a windows 2003/2008 box.
Configure NLB as normal on a windows 2003/2008 box.
Add new server to the farm and select host site on this server
Go into the registry of the server HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\14\WSS
For each server make sure the link is going to the server itself. This fixes your actual server link in the programs shortcuts on each server.
Then, go into Central Admin on either server and configure access mappings.
Drop down the application and click central admin. Make one of them the default and the other the Intranet.
So, you should have for instance: DEFAULT http://gigaportal:9111 and INTRANET http://gigaportal2:9111

SPS 2010 Developer Dashboard...helps in troubleshooting
Stsadm –o setproperty –pn developer-dashboard –pv ondemand (or “on” or “off”)
This will put a small icon in the top right of your sharepoint page. Click it and it will display debugging info on your page all the way at the bottom. The cool thing is its activated by each person, by that if you click it, only you see the information.
Very useful!

Language Translator for SharePoint

This thing is cool. Just add a content editor webpart. Paste the code in a .txt file and link the content editor to the .txt file in the sharepoint library.
really cool and a load of time savings!

Moving site collections to new databases SharePoint 2010
On the SharePoint Server, open command prompt to hive.
Type Stsadm -o enumsites -url > .xml
I used this for example:
Stsadm -o enumsites -url http://sp-giga > c:\sites.xml
Edit the sites.xml file to remove all sites that you do NOT want to move to another content db.
Then once you have done that, save the file back to c:\sites.xml.
Type Stsadm -o mergecontentdbs -url -sourcedatabasename -destinationdatabasename -operation 3 -filename
For example:
Stsadm -o mergecontentdbs -url http://sp-giga -sourcedatabasename wss_content -destinationdatabasename wss_content_sc_IT -operation 3 -filename c:\sites.xml
Check to make sure the sites moved over in central admin, manage content databases
