TheOpenCD — Alive and Well

TheOpenCD

I remember these guys when they first started. Mike and I participated in their forums and mailing list for a while… I thought it had petered out when there was no movement on the mailing list (other then the occasional “my software is better then your software” sqabble).

But it looks like they are actually producing a interesting CD. I’m in the process of downloading it. I use just about all of the programs already. ‘Cept Open Office, ’tis a bit of a beast.

I actaully used StarOffice 5 years and years ago… that was fun!!!

Anyway, if I get around to burning the ISO and cranking it up I’ll let you know how it feels.

  • It’s more of an “evangelism” tool rather then something people like a you and I would use.

    Nice interface, a bit slow to bring up the screenshots, but apparantly they are working on the whole interface. It’s currently done in VB4 (ug).

    The only useful thing that I found was (Yet Another) Sokoban clone… did I say useful thing???
