I think the question misses the point: what's the business model of the software company to be built regardless whether to use open- or closed source software? What's the value proposition of the software company in the first place? Using open source in itself won't guarantee business success anyway. On the plus side, using open source software can be a financial advantage for start-ups aside from it's standard compliance. Hope this helps :)
Almost all of the new software companies in the US seem to be open source based at least. Does not make sense at all. -- the thing i like with my linux pc is that i can sum up my complaints in 5 items
