Open Source for Windows

Ok, so 85% of you out there (I'm taking the figure from those who visit my I remember JFK blog) are still running Windows.

Fair enough.

After all, Windows 2000 was a quantum leap for the manufacturer of operating systems, and XP was even better. Those two versions comprise 73% of what you run.

Only 10.5% run (eww) Vista.

So you're happy with what you have. i respect that. Now, I'm going to tell you how you can obtain any of hundreds of great programs free for your Windows operating system. No sales pitches, no catches, no bundled spyware.

Our developer friends who post their work at Source Forge are letting you take advantage of their hard work.

For FREE!

There are office apps, CD/DVD writing software, graphics editors, internet utilities, OS emulators, programming languages/compilers, and much, much more.

So if you find yourself tempted to spring for a commercial Windows product, why not check out Source Forge first?

If you're really pleased, you can always slip the author a few bucks via pay links.
