works, and take the first step towards becoming full fledged free

Here is a list of popular free software applications that run on

Developers who have been using non-free software will be thrilled to
view, study, and use the sources listed at the above page. Of course,
this info is of no use to pathetic Microsoft agents, but it does give
them the chance start a new life as respectable and decent users of
computers who may even become honourable by contributing code :)
