Open Source Alternatives To Popular Software

,----[ Quote ]
| In the world of personal technology, there are only three major players: 
| Google, Microsoft and Apple. Why are they major? Because, like it or love it, 
| at some point during the day, you’re going to find yourself using one of 
| their programs or services—whether you’re doing a web search using Google, 
| writing a paper using Microsoft Word or organizing your music using iTunes. 
| But it doesn’t have to be this way.

| well as “P&G Flirts with Google Apps and Scares the Bejesus Out of Microsoft” 
| posted by Tom Wailgum on October 1st, “Fighting Government Waste One Google 
| Application At A Time”, and “Cost Savings Found When Microsoft Outlook Ousted

| Microsoft's internet division, which continues to lose market
| share in web search to Google.

| Microsoft's online services group saw revenue fall for the last
| four quarters and posted a loss in the past three quarters while
| it shifted to a new internet advertising platform and overhauled
| the company's web properties.
