open source software

Definition:

The noobie way to explain open source software is to think of a software application that has been developed by a user community rather than by a single corporation or entity. Open source software is generally free to use (but doesn't have to be) and the source code used to build the software is freely available for others to download, change or otherwise improve.

One of the most popular open source software applications is OpenOffice, a free, open source competitor to Microsoft's Office suite.

ink cartridge

An ink cartridge is a plastic container that contains ink used by inkjet printers. Ink cartridges are replaceable and even refillable if you purchase an ink refilling kit. Ink cartridges are less expensive then toner cartridges, but need to be replaced more often. Black and white cartridges are sold separately from color cartridges, so if you have an inkjet printer that can print in color, you typically must purchase separate black and white and color cartridges.
