How to change file extension of a large number of files?

How can I change/append an extension of a large number of files at once?
I have about 1000 files that have no extension. I want them to all keep their same filename, but add the same extension to each. Is there a way I can do this through the Windows XP command-line, or a batch file? Otherwise, what software might I need?

Someone recommended this program to me on AskMe before. It's free and it works wonderfully.

Or if you have Python installed, the script here (self-link).

I'm most fond of Lupas Renamer. You can google it if you're still looking the right tool.
