rayners Posted January 29, 2003 Posted January 29, 2003 I suppose I may as well contribute to the discussion here. Operating Systems: FreeBSD (great OS for PCs, and running on my machines at home) Debian Linux (my favorite Linux distribution) NetBSD (find any machine, NetBSD will run on it) OpenBSD (one of the most secure out-of-the-box OSes out there) Email Related: Mutt (text based mail client, with versions available for Windows) Fetchmail (downloads email from POP and IMAP servers, no Windows version that I know of) Exim (easily configurable mail server, though only for Unixes I believe) Procmail (wonderful email filtering program, I use it extensively, Unix only again I believe) Usenet Related: Leafnode (great little local and offline NNTP server, pulls down articles from your ISPs NNTP server) Slrn (great text based news reader, a Windows version is available) Web Related: Mozilla (Best. Browser. Ever.) AmphetaDesk (great little RSS feed reader for web sites) MovableType (best bloging/cms program out there period) Other: Cygwin (most of the Unix only programs you may actually get working in Windows with this) Enjoy!
