Recommendation os SQL Server Monitoring Tool

Our shop is expanding use of SQL Server, both 2000 and 2005. We have
Litespeed on some boxes to handle the backup/recovery jobs. Can I ask
what are considered the best tools for monitoring SQL Server, in terms
of things like performance monitoring, tuning and auditing if it is
possible to get all of this functionality in one?

What do you use and like?

Thanks in advance.

try Spotlight on SQL Server from www.quest.com
It is licensed per server but a very useful tool.
