The US seems to many people as the hub for software companies. The non-"tech people" might be in an illusion that all popular software companies are from the USA. The Giants - yes. Not the other popular ones though. Most of the softwares we use on a daily basis and companies that produce them are non-US. You'll find the following list interesting. I might say, at least half of these will pop up on your All Programs list ( If you are a windows XP user, that is )
3d software:
Blender - Netherlands
Maya, 3ds Max - Canada
Multimedia:
MPlayer - Hungary
VLC - France
DC++ - Poland
Gaming:
