GigaOM’s 10 ways to trick out your netbook for free
So you got yourself a brand new netbook on Black Friday and you’re wondering – where do I go from here? Well the folks at GigaOM have published an article detailing “10 ways to trick out your netbook for free.”
Free you say? It only makes sense of course. Why pay so little for a fully functional computer only to then pay so much for application software? If you look around, there’s plenty of free and wonderful software for both Windows and Linux.
Some of the applications listed by the GigaOM article include OpenOffice, PortableApps, Google Chrome, and of VLC Media Player.
