I'm just playing with this for the first time (and I agree, it is FAST!),
but here's another choice that I just saw from Serdar Yegulalp's Win2K Power
Users newsletter (available at http://www.win2kpowerusers.com/):

Shareware: Resplendent Registry

Reader JW passed along word of a program called Resplendent Registry -- a
very nice replacement for REGEDIT/REGEDT32.  There's two versions of the
program -- a full $44.95 version and a freeware version with less features.
The
best part of the program is its speed -- according to JW, "I did a search on
Symantec (have Norton AV 2002 installed).  My registry is 22mb.  77,950k
keys
were searched, producing 181 keyname matches, 15 value name matches and 466
data matches.  All in 8 seconds!"  The program can be had from
http://www.resplendence.com/download and is certainly worth a peek if you
constantly find
yourself up to your wrists in Registry keys.

I missed this whole thread since I wasn't at work today.  Damn.  I have
some thoughts on regedit and regedt32.  I'm really angered that there is
no separate regedit and regedt32 in XP anymore.  I mean, I usually used
regedit in 2000 unless I needed the regedt32 functionality.  But, I
would also use regedt32 whenever I had to connect to two registries at
the same time and do some comparing of the two.  Now in XP since there
is only one registry editor, it's a real PITA to look at two registry
locations at the same time.  I find myself terminal servicing into
servers just to use their regedits whenever I need to look at two places
at once.  I hate that.  I'm pretty damn disappointed, and I wish I could
launch more than one instance of regedit or regedt32.  I don't know why
those programs don't allow multiple instances.  I mean, it's not like
they lock the registry while they're open or anything like that.  It
doesn't make sense.  Maybe someone knows of a way...
