Software Industry on the Brink of Choosing Open Source

Pros and Cons related to Open Source, the biggest boohoo for Microsoft.

Of course I like Open Source, just think at the basic, Right-click and View Source and at what did it mean for you. How much did you learn from this?

If we get to Linux and other open source projects as database systems, web scripting and programming tools, then the advantage is much bigger.

What are the influences of the Open Source practices on the IT Industry? Here are some:
- More and more jobs for the guys used with the Open Sources technologies.
- Lower income for the Software Companies due to more and more alternatives provided by Open Source Technologies.
- Lower paid jobs for the IT professionals specialized only in big software companies tools.
- More inventions and faster evolution in software.
- More Jobs to support for software products, to provide help
- New jobs, such and Open Source Project Manager or any other control, QA and management job
- Patent and Licensing Nightmare
- Better trained programmers
