QUESTION: Where can I get (insert software here)?
ANSWER: If you are seeking commercial retail software, you need to purchase it or contact the vendor for trial/demo versions.
There is also a tremendous variety of shareware/freeware available. If you download such an application and find it useful and intend to continue use, ethical considerations dictate that you should pay for it or contribute to the author if provisions are made for such.
Most folks are also aware of "Warez", or copies of commercial software floating around the nether reaches of the internet. One sure way to insure you don't tap into Warez is to publically ask "Where can I get" and expect an equally public reply from somebody you don't know. If you are seeking Warez, you need to do your own searches. Even uncommon software can be located within a few minutes of searching.
As always, obey copyright and licensing laws.
