| In recent years, though, there has developed another reason not to build
| something: open source software. In fact, open source software has actually
| opened up new possibilities that simply wouldn't have been possible in the
| past. Often, software developers can find great "off the open source shelf"
| software that saves hundreds of hours of development time, allowing them to
| do more for less, or do things that they simply couldn't have afforded
| before.
