For any fellow, poor, grad students out there:
Bibus is an open-source bibliography manager application similar to Endnote. It manages your sources and will generate a bibliography for you, very nice once you start getting more than 10 or so sources for a paper. It integrates with MS Word or Openoffice.org, so it can automatically insert references for you in the correct format. I'm still hunting down AA style templates for it, but that's OK.
Couple it with
OpenOffice and you have an excellent writing platform on the cheap.
