Why pay $650 for Adobe Photoshop when you can have 97 percent of the functionality of Photoshop for free?
That's a question software developers and distributors plan on addressing at "Lindependence 2008," a free event in Felton on July 13, promoting the Linux operating system and other free open source software.
The goal is to show people that open-source users have the freedom to copy, change and redistribute their software, which Microsoft Windows users are prohibited from doing.
