This is the blurb on their homepage:
"Software for Starving Students is a free collection of programs organized for students (but available to anyone). We've gathered a list of best-in-class programs onto one CD (one disc for OS X, one for Windows), including a full-featured office suite, a cutting-edge web browser, multi-media packages, academic tools, utilities and more."
The Mac OS X applications they currently offer are Adium, Audacity, Bleezer, Blender, Cashbox, Celestia, Cyberduck, Firefox, FreeDMG, Freemind, Genius, GeoGebra, GLtron, HandBrake, ImageBurner, Latin WORDS, Monolingual, NeoOffice, NVU, Pac the Man X, Platypus, POV-Ray, Quinn, Schoolhouse, Seashore, Smultron, Stellarium, Thunderbird, Transmission, TypeTrainer4Mac and VideoLAN Client.
Some of these are probably only of interest to Alpha Geeks. ALL are also available directly from their developers. The value this site offers is getting a lot of free software in a single disc image file. The downside is you are in for a very large download, and you may not want or need many of the applications. Also, you'll probably not be getting the latest versions. (Open source software is updated frequently.)
