Free & Open Source Software SIG

The FOSS Flap PDF Print E-mail

 

These are a series of columns I've recently began writing for "Bits and Bytes" the monthly newsletter of the Tampa Bay Computer Society. I'm attempting to cover Free and Open Source Software ranging from alternative operating systems to thousands of applications.

I hope this builds FOSS support within the club as acceptable user software with zero user cost. Using open source, we save hundreds of dollars on each computer installation (which allows us to buy nicer computer toys) and helps support a dedicated worldwide open source developer community.
