Open Source Makes a Difference
,----[ Quote ]
| The obvious reason to use open source software
| is cost savings, says Mark Madsen, president of
| market research firm Third Nature. But, whether
| you actually save when it comes to license and
| support costs is the question among many.
|
| Using public sources and vendor information,
| Madsen created a Pentaho-sponsored cost
| comparison report (âLowering the Cost of
| Business Intelligence With Open Sourceâ),
| comparing BI software and support costs from
| Pentaho, IBM (Cognos), MicroStrategy, Oracle
| and SAP (Business Objects).

An Open Source Principle: One Good Thing Leads To Another
,----[ Quote ]
| In open source, the idea that the endgame for a
| project won't necessarily closely resemble the
| origin is a given, not a surprise. It's part of
| the point of open source. If you look at what's
| going on on the open source scene, now, you see
| this concept being played out all around.
