Recommended Free Software
|
The Sinclair Group uses and recommends free and open source software as an alternative to expensive (and often inferior)
proprietary tools. The following list contains some of our favorite free software packages.
-
OpenDisc
OpenDisc is a high qualiy collection of open source software (OSS) for the Microsoft Windows operating system.
The two main goals of the project are:
- To provide a free alternative to costly software, with equal or often better quality equivalents to proprietary, shareware or freeware software for Microsoft Windows.
- To educate users of Linux as an operating system for home, business and educational use.
The majority of programs featured on OpenDisc are also available on Linux.
-
