English Usage: 'Software', Not 'Softwares'
I think we discussed this before but it won't hurt to repeat. Lot of people use the word 'softwares' to describe multiple number of software products / suits installed on their computer. However, please be aware that there is no such word as 'softwares'. You just have 'software' installed on your machine. Just like your computer has various hardware component which you collectively call 'hardware' and not 'hardwares'.

Ankita KatdareYeah. This mistake is repeated quite often. I pointed out to a couple of my friends and they just thought I was being a grammar nazi. Well, it doesn't hurt to use proper words, so why use incorrect terms?
