Thanks for guiding me but exactly same feeling I was also having in my innocent heart and was unable to express it !! -- Check my status message on yesterday !! ( http://twitter.com/eduvid/status/3553141752 ) While writing that message I was having same confusion whether to use "software" or "softwares" but I preferred the plural form because it is most common and intuitive. but thanks for suggestion, I will use "software" Or "software products" when needed ! PS: (Its already late, I made the order, will change the typo for further products) -- ┌─────────────────────────┐ │ Narendra Sisodiya ( नरेन्द्र सिसोदिया ) │ R&D Engineer │ Web : http://narendra.techfandu.org │ Twitter : http://tinyurl.com/dz7e4a └─────────────────────────┘ _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
