Berlioz - Inventor of Orchestration and Conducting :: Hector was quite the guy, he invented two things that modern music takes for granted, the conductor, and the secretive guy who orchestrates it all.

For web-browsing there is Firefox, for email Thunderbird, and for a calendar Sunbird.

OpenOffice.org :: Open Office is a replacement for Microsoft's popular Office Suite of aplications. It can do just about anything Office can (this does not include Microsoft's buggy gimmicks that they claim are features). The spreadsheet will take some getting used to for MS fans, because in functions a semi-colon is used in place of a comma. It is a very effective toolbox for any office's needs, be they corporate or home. Best of all...it's free.

SourceForge :: If you like free stuff, as I am sure you do, then sourceforge is for you. It is site dedicated to open-source software development, free software written by freelancers who do it 'cause they can, not like the $350.00 crap you have to buy from Microsoft (that is if you want a legal copy).

Sports
0-60 and 1/4 mile times for Factory Stock Vehicles :: Here's a site by the Super Coupe Club of Iowa, a pretty extensive list of automobile speeds straight out of the factory (not souped up yet). My favorite is the 1973 Super Beetle Convertible, it finished the 1/4 mile before it reached 60!
