    I also use Microsoft Visio. Can't get much better than that.
    However, there are some other open source apps that I have played around with that will work. Hope you don't mind using a couple apps and peice them together though...

    Networknotepad

    Also, check out Dia
    http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/

    or diacanvas.
    http://diacanvas.sourceforge.net/

    Open office will let you do something simple like an org chart...
    Depends on what you really need.

    If you have the $, get visio.

    Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.

    I routinely use Visio at work, although I despise it...
    My personal favorite is LanFlow (EdgeDiagramer) from PaceStar (www.pacestar.com).
