Enterprise Architect is cheap, cheerful and OK for most use. I've used
ArgoUML before and didn't like it.

Rhapsody and Rose are too damn heavyweight, too bureaucratic, too
clunky.

I was very, very impressed by Telelogic's System Architect. It's far
more interactive then Rhapsody and gives you a much more organic feel
for how an architecture is evolving. But it's pricy.
