I use the crit markers from http://www.battlemarkers.com.  Reasonable prices, and I'm in talks with him to make markers for the races that use special crit results, like the eldar.

If you order some, tell him Jeff sent you, as I'm trying to convince him of the value of expanding his BFG token range with custom crit for other races, and with crippled markers.

By the way, they've now added critical hit tokens for the racial-specific results too.

Excellent... I'll probably be picking up a few of these when I get the chance (and the cash  ;))

I'm talking to him about making torpedo markers too, for the special torp types from Armada.

I usually just mark it on a pad of paper since there is so much record keeping anyway. But markers are cool

I agree that paper works in a pinch, but I find the markers not only useful to improve remembering, but also they are more fair.

After all, your opponent is entitled to know the status of your ships, and vice versa.  It's a lot easier to keep track if everyone can see a simple marker.  At least so I've found.
