Google Unveils The Google Pack

Posted by Zonk on from the i-think-we-already-run-with-that-pack dept.

7hunderstruck writes "Google yesterday announced the release of Google Pack, a 'free collection of essential software'. Along with Google's own programs, such as Google Toolbar and Google Earth, Google Pack contains Firefox, Adobe Reader, a six month subscription to Norton Antivirus, and Trillian as well as other apps. Any respectable /. user should have most of this suite installed already (excluding a few things), but it will be nice to make it all widely available to the general public." Commentary on ZDNet.

    Respectable slashdot users don't use windows.

    I should stop reading slashdot. Too many windows-using moderators these days.

    The constant knob slobbing over Google's every chunk of turd is really getting old.

    Why would you expect anything else? If Google is complying with the licensing terms of the software that they are using, then who the fuck are you to criticize?

    What Open Source projects have you contributed to? Oh, that's right - none.

    I swear the rampant hypocrisy on Slashdot now that it has been overwhelmed by 6-digit UID posters is absolutely sickening.
