On Computers

• FSF.org has free programs for users of the Linux operating system.

  Includes stock market trackers, crossword puzzle generators and many more.

• Switched.com is a subset of AOL News, and has odd stories. We learned of Best Buy stores faking a shortage of Nintendo Wii game machines by having a clerk walk around with a unit held high overhead and the store’s public address system stating this was the last one it had. This was done every half-hour with a new one for sale each time, the reporter noted.
