11 Free Linux Apps Your Business Needs Now

“Despite the wealth of free applications out there, many small
business owners continue to spend an inordinate amount of their
all-too-scarce resources on software. Microsoft Office 2010?

PhotoShop CS5? A whopping $699.

“The good news is that there are free and open-source
alternatives for virtually every package a small business might

and other reasons for doing so — these free apps can be just what
any small business needs to succeed.”
