Tomando como fuente la página de "The Linux Alternative Project", transcribo aquí una lista bastante exhaustiva de software libre que puede ser utilizado a discreción y para que sirva para rebajar la ilegalidad en el consumo de software.
Muchas de estas aplicaciones libres tienen una versión no solo para GNU/Linux sino para Windows, por lo que el sistema operativo base que se utilice no debe ser una barrera infranqueable.
Que lo disfrutes.
Alfredo Abad Domingo.
