Software for Starving Students
Software for Starving Students is a
compilation CD of the best of freely available software for both Windows and Macintosh computers with a mind towards
usefulness for students and educators, though most anyone could make use of the software included in this elegant

astounding, including both Open Source and simply free software. Here's a few packages that caught my
eye:Windows Packages

Paint .NET is prettier and easier to use than GIMP. Plus it has a name which doesn't make me cringe every time I say it.
On a side note: when are you going to fix the problem with new paragraphs on this site? Every time someone does a double newline (for a new paragraph) you insert too many blank lines - after a while it makes the page very long, very blank and slightly unreadable.

I am a starving College Student. Really! The only thing in my fridge is a Beer Ball (55 beers in a mini keg) and some olives (the Jalapano Stuffed kind, which now that i have thought of, i think i will go eat). I think it is a great idea, Software for Starving Students, but what they really need is food, not software. You don't get to be, well, NOT STARVING with free software. We need care packages and Cooking lessons.
Oh, and if any of you readers wants to do some good philanthropy for a good cause (me), i would love to give you my address so you could send me some food.
