"Computer Stupid" No More

What if I told you most of the headaches from using your computer aren't your fault?

If you're using a regular PC bought from a store somewhere, chances are it's true. Our mission is to make computers easy for anyone to use. Why? Because no one deserves to feel stupid just because of commercial self-interest or a lack of knowledge.

No one.

While this might sound like a sales pitch designed to get you to buy something, it isn't. The Placidus Project is strictly non-commercial. We recommend Free Software wherever possible and devices based on ease-of-use, quality, and affordability.
