And the notable point is that both these delivery option is free and no shipping charges and hence I would suggest you to go for the international courier option which is more safer and quicker to receive.
Also remember that since this is only a 120 day trial DVD, you cannot use it as soon as your trial expires from the day you start using it. And will most probably need to buy it to continue using it and will be rendered useless after that unless you buy it.

Get Oracle Unbreakable Linux DVD for free


Other than Ubuntu, which I wrote about it day before, and Sun Solaris there is a new kid on the block and that is none other than the giant named Oracle. Which in fact has started offering their own version of Linux namely Oracle Unbreakable Linux. And what more you too get the free version in a CD for free. Here you will be getting free DVD of Linux, which you can order it to get it delivered anywhere across the world and especially in India too for free. This is a new offer exclusively from Oracle and can be requested from them as a DVD instead of CDs. Although Linux was considered as not too easy to use when compared to Windows but I feel that these new versions of Linux has completely changed it. Now it could be more easier to use than Windows. And moreover it is much safer than Windows too!
The interface and other features have become more attractive and easy to use. Instead of using the every buggy Windows, it is time that we move to a new operating system which is far secure than Windows. I too was planning for a shift from Windows to Linux and this Oracle Unbreakable Linux could be the perfect reason to jump.
Coming back to this offer Just like Ubuntu Linux you need to register here too with your email ID and giving your home address to get it delivered promptly for free. The advantage here would be that you will also get live support for this from Oracle itself. You will be getting free DVD within three to four weeks. I have indeed ordered it and waiting for the DVD to be delivered soon.
Do remember to give your correct and accurate address since it is an international delivery, your order might get lost due to shipping issues, especially with country like India, where there were too numerous and complicated addressing system.
You can order your free Oracle Unbreakable Linux CDs here and/or here.

India today is offering free 2 bestseller music CD's or knowledge reference CD-ROMs worth Rs. 590 and 1 year membership to Booksbuddy service worth Rs. 299 for free. All you need to pay is postage and handling charges of Rs. 199.

It virtually means that you are signing up for their Booksbuddy for Rs. 199 and getting the free 2 knowledge reference CD-ROMs.
The two CD-ROMs include Encyclopedia Britannica- Space, Encyclopedia Britannica- Nature, Encyclopedia Britannica- Guide to Shakespeare, Encyclopedia Britannica- Great Minds, Encyclopedia Britannica- Dinosaurs, Quizmaster, The Human Body, How Machines Work all worth Rs. 399 each. So you can request for any two of these for free.
Or you can get free Music for relaxation or meditation and other instrumental music in this series worth Rs. 295 each. You can request for two from this series

Actually this offer was offering Adidas bag worth Rs. 699 along with it for free. But when I was writing about it, I could not see the free Adidas offer, and they have also not mentioned about Adidas bag anywhere on the site except on the header where there is an image of Adidas bag and even in the place where they have explained about the offer and how to redeem it, they have not mentioned about it, so I guess it would have been sold over or stocks would have been exhausted hence Adidas is not given for free.

And the above CDs too if any of the above you requested runs out of stock, you will be getting only which they have, so hurry and request for it now, if indeed you are planning to avail this offer.
I personally feel that those CD-ROMs which they are giving away are useful to get it for Rs. 199, hence coming to Rs. 100 each and could be worth its money and also you are getting free membership to India Today's book club for one year, where they will send more offers and freebies if you become the member and you can buy various books at discounted price and will get it delivered to your home too.

Receive Ebook CD & DVDS Right at Your home for Free

This freebie offer could be known to most of you, but this is for those who don't know about it. Gutenberg is a project where you can download free ebooks from their site. All the ebooks downloaded from Gutenberg are copyright free and can be freely downloaded and can also be freely distributed provided you do not make any changes to the content. Apart from downloading these huge collection of ebooks, you can actually request for free CD and DVD with around 10,000 ebooks from Gutenberg and you can read and enjoy for free.

It has some of the best collection of ebooks ranging from classics, fiction, science, literature, history, etc.

Apart from downloading ebooks from their site, you can also burn it on CD or DVD by downloading their image files (ISO files) and can easily write it either CD or DVD. You can also make as many copies you like of these CDs and DVDs and can give it for free to anybody you like. You can also sell the CD that they provide provided that you donate the 20% of your earnings to Gutenberg through their site. The DVD cannot be sold, it can only be shared for free.If you cannot even download those ISO files, then you can request for both CDs and DVDs through Gutenberg. They will promptly deliver both CD and DVD to home address that you provide. There is an option where you can donate to Gutenberg for their service, but this is purely voluntary.

have indeed got both these CDs and DVDs and indeed enjoyed it and even copied both and have shared with many of my friends and relatives. They do send some really good classics which are worth more price in its printed edition, but all those we are getting it for free through this great service called Gutenberg.

I have seen many people selling both CD and DVD in many places across the city. The CD was priced at Rs. 100 and DVD was priced at Rs. 500. I don't know whether they will indeed donate the 20% share to Gutenberg or not. I was surprised at that time to see a huge crowd turned up to buy those CDs which was actually available for free. Hence I thought of writing about this free service here, so that you don't end up paying or buying those CD or DVD elsewhere in the future, but can indeed get it for free.

The CD contains best 600 ebooks of Gutenberg. The DVD contains 9400 ebooks from Gutenberg. You can order both at a time, each one, but not more than that.

Although it might take up some 2 weeks for them to process your free CDs but they do indeed send you the ebooks promptly
