Funziona un pò come la Chiesa: “indottrinali” sin da piccoli che non ti lasciano più!

Come ben saprete, il software by Microsoft si paga, e anche molto: prima piratare Windows era quasi legale e grazie a questo si è diffuso così tanto.

Adesso, dopo che Microsoft si è inferocita contro la pirateria, Windows (ma non solo) ce lo regalano!

A noi universitari, infatti, moltissimi dei software Microsoft li regalano gratis: è chiaro che nel mondo universitario il software libero sia oggetto di studio oltre che essere ampiamente utilizzato, e l’unica alternativa possibile per Microsoft è regalarlo (con un’unica limitazione, quella di non utilizzarlo a scopi commerciali).

Ma dicevamo… Windows e non solo!

Ecco tutta la lista dei software che posso scaricare gratis, legalmente, con licenza d’uso!

La speranza di BigM sta proprio nel fatto che noi utilizziamo un software e poi non ne possiamo fare a meno in ambito lavorativo: loro ci provano, anche se credo che il tempo del software closed source sta per terminare.
