Speaking of Programming Languages...
In what really is a great (and nostalgic, for many of us) offering to the publc, Free Pascal is offering...free Pascal. They have created a Pascal compiler that is almost 100% compatible with the defacto standard Pascal environment, Borland Pascal, and released it under a modified GNU Public License. Currently it is available for DOS, Win32, OS/2, Linux, and AmigaDOS, but there's been "strong hinting" it is being ported to the Mac, presently.
Pascal is the first real, compiling language I learned (back in HS), and I must say it would bring back some memories to throw down a few lines of that old-school code.
