Looking Back at Open Source in 2005

Posted by samzenpus on from the remember-when dept.

bhmit1 writes "BusinessWeek is reporting on the open source progress in 2005. Their conclusion: "in 2005, the software movement finally gained traction in Corporate America and saw a new influx of VC cash." Has the shift in corporate america really occurred or are activities like the profitability of Red Hat signalling that the CEO's are still holding on to the old way of business?"

    Office suites are a bad idea. MS Office is proof of that; it's the best product in its category, but it still really really sucks.
