HAL 9000

Ever wonder what it's like to be facing the infamous antagonist in one of the most celebrated science fiction stories of all time? I'm talking about the sentient on-board computer in, Arthur C. Clarke's Space Odyssey, HAL 9000. Finally, plenty of sci-fi geeks are getting a chance to have their own sentient, "evil" computer right on their very own desktop. For those who are familiar with the film or the books, this one easily helps kickstart the imagination and lets users play pretend on what it must be like to become an astronaut on your way to the biggest planet in the Solar System. Having that red eye camera lens from your screen definitely brings its own category of cool. Give it a download.

Crash Landing

Ever wonder what it must be like to drive and land your own spaceship? What controls do you need to use? Is the physics behind it all that difficult? Well, download Crash Landing and you might just find out how challenging it is to land your own space craft. This cool game is available for free download on iTunes. The game was created by Marketwall.com and was first released about 3 years ago. The game gives players a chance to experience manipulating their own space shuttle where the objective is to land their spacecraft upright without crashing. If you're up for a challenge (and trust me, you'll get plenty of it here) then give this one a download.

Zwei-Stein

Zwei-Stein might seem like the last name of a person, but instead it's actually a reliable and highly functional free video editing program. The program works great in editing but does feature a very technical interface so it's ideal for someone who doesn't get easily daunted by the onslaught of various windows and buttons in one screen. The program makes it easy for users to incorporate special effects to their videos and can easily work on two different media sources and render them at the same time. These are just two of the software's strengths. Pretty much, Zwei-Stein has plenty more up its sleeve when it comes to helping users with their video/image editing needs.

TuxGuitar

Most musicians need a reliable tablature reader or editor to help them out in creating their musical masterpieces. If you are one of those looking for a program like this, then take TuxGuitar for a spin. This nifty tool is perfect for aspiring musicians and even those that have already made a name for themselves. The program provides a good range of features including the capacity to work as a basic MIDI editor. It also allows its users to export and transpose files coming from different sources and formats. However, the biggest draw perhaps, is that it's offered absolutely free of charge. It's a cool program that might look complicated but is actually very easy to use.
