Software Siblings and Shopping the Software Stores with John Kennedy, APCUG Advisor Regions 3 and 6/7
The beauty of Linux and Open Source is that there are always choices. That's really true when it comes to software. Everyone has a better idea for even the basic applications like file managers, browsers, text editors, image viewers, and media/video players to name a few. Desktop Environments (DEs) have a default set of core applications that usually differ from each other. However, Linux users can choose whichever version of the application they want to use as their default. Join John as he shares the many options when it comes to core software.

In the second part of the workshop, you'll be introduced to a number of different ways to get additional software that didn't come with your default core set. John will share what most distros have in the way of "Software Stores" and take you shopping.
