Here's a nice quote which summarizes how we all can make money from open
source:
No. Open source is good for business. Now I should add that open source is
not for everything in software. We have a very large and successful
software business, and we're going to retain that. But open source is
great for infrastructure code. The reason is that to make open source
work, there has to be an overlap between the people who care about the
software and the people who make the software better. As you get further
up the application stack, those two groups become disjointed...so the
software that checks you into a hospital will never be open source because
the people who care about that can't write software.
