Open source 'ready to go' for business applications
,----[ Quote ]
| With open source already mainstream,
| companies are now arriving at the point
| where they are prepared to invest in
| this area for business applications.
|
| So claims the chairman of the recent
| Open World Forum and chief executive of
| Wallix Jean-Noel de Galzain, in a recent
| interview.
|
| Galzain said that open source was a
| mainstream part of IT, found in internet
| infrastructure and high-performance
| computing, and would offer opportunities
| in cloud computing and network
| technologies.

Microsoft Losing its Grip on UK Small Businesses?
,----[ Quote ]
| Put another way, according to this survey few small business in the UK intend
| upgrading to Windows 7 soon; the majority want to move to solutions
| independent of the operating system, to those based on the browser; and fully
| a third of the companies are using Firefox, not Internet Explorer, for that
| purpose.
|
| That adds up to a bunch of headaches for Microsoft if those results are
| mirrored across the whole of the UK, because it suggests some fairly seismic
| shifts are underway in the small business sector, and that the company is
| failing on multiple fronts.
