Software

Here is a very short list of Open Source software.  It will be updated for new and fresh resources as time goes on.  If there is something that you think should be listed here, please let us know.

Linux (for those who do not know, it is an operating system just as Windows or OSX is)

Mozilla software (such as firefox browser and thunderbird email)

Apache web server (The premiere web server software that pretty much started the internet as we know it and is still believed to service over 90% of all web sites, world wide

ClamAV (while linux and derivative operating systems are not prone to viruses due to their underlying security, this very capable antivirus program has been created for operating systems which are more targeted and vulnerable)

OpenOffice / LibreOffice (office productivity suites like Wordperfect or MS Office)

Gimp (a graphics program like PhotoShop)

Gnu Cash (a double entry accounting program like Quickbooks or Simply Accounting)

PiTiVi (a non-linear video editor like iMovie or Adobe Premiere)

LMMS / Ardour (audio DAW which are commercial quality and directly compete in markets that are serviced by Pro Tools)

Open Source games (from first person shooters to card games, RPG, side scrollers and more)
