So, let us get down to brass tacks. Just what good is free and open source software for you? Well, the free aspect in the sense of the French word gratis, meaning without cost, that is important to a lot of people. Particularly if you are a student, from any businesses; being able to get software that is industrial, rugged proof, does not fail, does not suffer from host of problems that commercial programs suffer from, well, you know, the benefits are obvious. I am thinking in particular of many application programs like Word Processing, Image Editing, 3D Graphics, just about anything you think you might want to do, there is probably a package out there that you can download for free off the internet and make whatever changes to that you like.
If you should decide to use free and open source software for yourself, you will find that you are in good company. Many huge multinational, multibillion dollar corporations have spend a lot of time and effort in contributing to various open source and free and open source software products and they use them internally both in their products and on their desktops of their employees. So, if it is good enough for a multibillion dollar corporation, chances are, it will do everything that you wanted to do yourself.
