I use a program called Smartdraw, unfortunately proprietary!
Here is a link to the Mind Map page:
http://www.smartdraw.com/specials/mindmapping.asp

I wish I could find this capability elsewhere it would be useful in a planning
sense for us.  Try the free download. If we could create this same ability in Sugar
that would be fantastic.

The two from Sugar Camp I created on the Fly while the talks were going on.
Just set up a bunch of rectangles and typed in content. Later reorganized ideas(rectangles)
into groups of like minded topics. Added colors to separate ideas. Save- then turn into them into pdf and your
done. You can always go back and make changes and create new pdf.
