Free software is a matter of liberty, not price. Think of "free" as in "free speech," not as in "free beer." Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software.

Good but why would you need it if you have sourceforge?

The Free Software Foundation publishes a directory of Free Software broken down by category with brief discussions of each package. There is so much good free software - why use anything else? For some recommendations on the best of the freeware, try Gizmo's Best-Ever Freeware list. My Specific Recommendations The most obvious app, of course, is FireFox BullZip PDF creator A fascinating new word processor, Jarte Avast, a virus-protection package SuperAntiSpyWare... should be obvious Sunbelt Firewall... also obvious Irfanview, a totally awesome graphics viewer I admit that I use MS Office, but that's because I write Excel macros for my job. Otherwise, I would be open to using Open Office, though I am distressed by the lack of good in-depth documentation of the macro language.
