Go download some at http://www.freshmeat.net, for starters. And leave the corporate VISA in your wallet, because freshmeat only accepts, well, nothing! It is a paradigm shift when the realization that 99% of the software you are used to is available for *nix and then go on to realize that there are applications that open new doors of possibilities. Or not, it is your choice! A main goal in my corporate environment is to introduce as much open source software and in return, support the developers with a donation. Sometimes, it's not all about "the market", thank goodness.
