I love my moleskines and 3x5 index cards! Though I mainly use it for my todo items, notes and basically any idea that I would like to capture (tech and non-tech alike).
That said, I have been using MS Project for quite a while - At the game development company I worked for prior to my startup, MS Project was used by everyone. From the Devs, to the Producers and platform account managers (SONY, NOA, MS) - So I learned how to use it and have been using it ever since - Granted it is bloated with a ton of features that I never use, but IMO, it gets the job done and is used by a lot of people - I can shoot over an *.mpp file to to any of my colleagues to keep tabs on all aspects of our projects;

I don´t know what everybody uses. I survive with a Moleskine, a pencil, a rubber and a set of pens of different colors.

For a team, I recommend adding "sticky notes on posterboard", to your low tech regime. Best issue tracking system I've used to date.
So do I.
Also, I want to stay so focused on the top 2 or 3 items that I never need anything more complex.
