TheOpenCD

I’ve just been sent[1] a free sample copy of TheOpenCD.

This is an evangelism project which provides nicely packaged CDs containing open source applications for Windows users. The version I have contains OpenOffice.org, the Gimp, Mozilla and a host of other less well-known apps. It also contains tutorials and a few books about open source. I’ve just seen it even contains a trailer for Revolution OS.

This looks like a really good idea to me. I think I’ll be burning a few copies (which you are encouraged to do) and sharing them with Windows-handicapped friends.

[1] By which I mean that it arrived by snail mail
