Seneca@York - Freedom Toaster Dispenses Open Source Software

The Freedom Toaster has taken up residency in the Seneca@York Library and Computing Commons. The product of a student project, the Freedom Toaster burns open source software to your own CDs, quickly and free of charge. All the software is reviewed regularly, updated and is pre-loaded into the Freedom Toaster’s hard drive. The kiosk addresses the fact that many students have shied away from downloading Open Source software because of the time it takes, and the difficulty of getting reliable and complete programs that are easy to install and upgrade. Bring a cd, pick the software you want using the touch screen, and viola! you're ready to join the open source movement.
