The OSGeo group makes a bootable DVD/ISO image that gives you a chance to explore a lot of Free and Open Source GIS Software. The DVD runs Linux (but don’t be scared of it – it’s quite simple to run and use) plus it’s free. There is quite a bit of software available from desktop to server type applications. It’s a great way to explore and learn – plus – once again – it’s free. You may end up getting so curious about some of this stuff you might just install it and possibly….Use it!

Go forth – learn – do something different.
