Also you can run Concorde over the Internet by taking advantage of the NEOS 
Server:

   www.neos-server.org

Click on "NEOS Solvers" and look under Combinatorial Optimization and Integer 
Programming.  You specify an appropriate Concorde input file to be uploaded 
from your computer, and the optimal tour is displayed in your browser.  (There 
is also an API for making submissions from your own program.)

I mention this here because one can also run GLPK through NEOS, saving the time 
of installing it locally.  It is hosted for NEOS at the Univ of Wisconsin 
currently only with GAMS input, but if there's interest I think they could be 
persuaded to put up versions with input in MathProg and some low-level formats 
like MPS and LP.
