My husband found this yesterday, apparently it's a special week-long deal going on where you can buy a bundle of 5 indie PC games for any price you want, and you can have as much of the money as you want go to a charity:

The games are World of Goo, Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru, and Penumbra Overture. And the charities are Child's Play, which donates things like toys and books to hospitalized children, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which works in defense of online civil liberties. The special is only going on for about 2 more days, but they've already raised over $500,000 from doing it. Anyway, we went ahead and bought it, but I was just curious if anyone else had done so or heard about it. The games are also cross-platform, meaning they will work on Windows, Mac, and Linux (the latter of which we have, and so far the games work great); and they are also DRM-free. I haven't played any of the games yet so I couldn't tell you what they're like, but from what I've seen some of them look interesting, and they have nice graphics at the very least
Anyway, just thought this was interesting.
