Computing and Software
Nearly-free software
The sites listed for free software (see lefthand navigation bar) are also good sources for shareware (which you can typically use free for a short period but are then asked to contribute towards costs).
Commercial purchase
Computing Service Software Sales handles a variety of commercial software for which special prices have been negotiated through CHEST or otherwise.
Software which is not available free or as shareware or through Software Sales will have to be purchased from commercial retailers (including online retailers). Academic discounts are often available, so it is always worth asking dealers if there is an education price.
