Gratis
As you'll have gathered, I love free stuff, and there is an awful lot of it out there. But Andrew, I hear you say, it's free for a reason. Strings attached. You only get what you pay for. Spam. Hassle.
Normally I'd agree, but the Internet has changed all that. You are, at this very moment, connected to millions of people across the world and a lot of them find or create new and better ways of doing things, and are happy to share them with other Internet users. If you want to reward them, that's up to you, but most do it because it's what they do.
At FreeSoftware4All.com you'll find a superb, regularly updated list of free programs covering graphics, security, office software, games, CD/DVD players and recorders and loads more.
There's probably a free equivalent to every program on your computer...
