| news involving money in the open source 
| industry. Opengear, provider of an open 
| source console server, scored its first $1 
| million deal in December 2009. Next up, 
| Opengear has won a deal involving Linode, a 
| cloud and VPS (virtual private server) 
| hosting company. Hmmmâ. are solutions 
| providers waking up to these niche open
