Software

Most software can be purchased over the Internet these days. Some some can even be downloaded for free. Much free software can be found at: www.tucows.com

Freeware - Can be downloaded for free but usually is only offered for non-commercial use or has other conditions.
Demo - Usually free to download - usually not fully operational and/or only works for a short period of time.
Beta - Guinea Pig software not usually fully developed. Released early as a test (not fully functional or defective).
Adware - Can be downloaded for free but adds pop up when you use it (often when you are not using it too).
Shareware - Fully operation software that will operate for a short period time. Commonly distributed by many manufacturers so their customers can trial software before they purchase it.

Some useful software that I have personal used includes:
