FOSS Free Open Source Software

Thought this site might be of interest to people seeking free open source alternatives. There is too much to list here.They also provide a download of software for use on a removeable drive ( remarkably similar to the Portable Apps Suite ).
I don't think that this link will contravene the forum posting guidelines.

I have searched the forums for any similar link but found none.

The portable software is

The portable software is just some of the software available on this website along with PStart in a zip file...nothing special.

Agreed, but...

I did comment that the portable offerings were very similar but I should have been clearer about the other software available in the Zip file. I know it is non portable which is why I posted in the Off Topic forum " other things which might be of interest to the community".

My post wasn't intended to

My post wasn't intended to be a slam or anything. Just the fact that you can download the same thing here as far as the portable apps go. On the other hand, I have about 30 tabs open right now to all the other non-portable projects that looked interesting and I knew nothing about. Biggrin There's some future portable apps in there somewhere I'm sure.

Here's a list of all the apps available in the iso file:
