Open Source Software
Open
Source software is developed by some of the World's very best software
writers in collaboration with consumers, academics, technicians and
other interested people, including people just like you. With Open
Source software you are free to use it on as many computers as you
like, and you are free to give it to others to use as well. (don't try
this with "Microsoft" folks)
Minimise your risk from viruses
"Mozilla"
is a full featured Web-Browser, Mail and News Suite with advanced
options such as tabbed browsing, pop-up blocking and spam filter. The
simple web design lets you create and publish your own web pages as
well. With the majority of today's crippling viruses currently being
written specifically to exploit the default "Windows" browser and email
client, "Internet Explorer" and "Outlook Express", one of the
simplest steps that you can take to reduce your exposure to viruses is
to switch to an alternative set of applications, such as "Mozilla" or
"Firefox" (my favorite)
"Mozilla" and "Firefox" are both available on "The
Open Disc"
Got a Digital Camera?
Included
on "The
Open Disc" is the GNU Image
Manipulation
program "GIMP"
Ideal for photo-retouching, image composition and image authoring. It
is highly flexible due to it's scripting system and plug-ins and it
supports a variety of file formats, languages and operating systems.
Notable features include a full suite of painting tools, plus support
for custom brushes and patterns, layers and channels, full alpha
channel support, gradient editor, blend tool, sub-pixel sampling for
improved anti-aliasing and multiple Undo/Redo. Over 100 plug-ins
already available. This CD includes a set of tutorials and a very
comprehensive book on the art of using "GIMP" to help get you started. (This
program is similar to the fantastic "Adobe Photoshop" without the
$1000.00 price tag.)
Safe On-Line shopping with PayPal.

Open Source Software
"Free
software" is a
matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should
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.
Open Source software is free in both senses mentioned above. Since the software on the CD's are distributed under an open source license, it really is free (as in speech). Once you receive your DVD/CD, you are free to install it on as many computers as you like. (don't try this with Microsoft software, folks)
Open Source software is also free (as in beer) - meaning free to download. If you're computer savvy, and have a high-bandwidth Internet connection, you can download the entire OpenOffice.org suite as a 550 MB .zip file. Even if you decide not to buy it on a DVD/CD from us, we highly recommend that you try this great software.
