I work in a school district, which has a decent number of computers. As most districts, we're constantly re-imaging them. Since I got my hands on some new open source software which works great (Called FOG, linux based for the FOG server but primarily geared towards cloning Windows workstations), I've been imaging computers more and more to "reset" them instead of doing typical maintenance stuff, i.e. defrag, delete profiles, clear this, delete that, etc to get them back to how they were.
As a result, I've been setting up master images for each brand of computer we have. The thing is, I thought maybe there'd be more that would be viable for the images than I've included.
Typically my computers for the labs get the following:
Office 03
Office 07 converter
Flash 10
Reader 9
Quicktime
Java 6
IE7
Firefox
VLC
Is there any other software that would be a viable option to have as default on computers? I know there's programs like Audacity and whatnot, but typically labs aren't doing music editing.
Just figured I'd throw this question out there before I set up and finalize all of these images.
Note - These programs must be free.
