“On February 1st, 2000, LinuxForKids.com will be 4 months old!”
With now well over 50 different titles listed, we increased our
initial number tenfold!”
“To celebrate this anniversary, we are glad to announce the
release of the LinuxForKids Collection, Volume 1, CD-Rom. This
CD features all the titles listed so far on LinuxForKids.com, plus
all the necessary libraries to compile and run them. In all
over 50 different software packages and 20 libraries. Over 100 Mb
of data available instantly, no more waiting for your download to
go through, and you won’t have to spend hours on the internet
looking for the right libraries. We have educational games in math,
spelling and science, and a lot of fun games too, arcade or
simulation (but no violent games). Most of the packages are
available in source tarball, for maximum compatibility across all
platforms. You can check our web site to see the games we currently
have listed.”
“We are glad to provide this as a service to the Linux community
and the parents who want to provide their children with some
alternative to the regular games found in most stores. All the
titles are developed by independent programmers who write software
on their spare time and contribute to the Open Source
movement.”
