Open Source and the Corporate world....

Over the last couple of weeks, when I can find a news story not from CES, there has been a lot written about Open Source and the Corporate World.  Two articles I found interesting that were about FOSS businesses.  The first is over at the Register and talks about going after business models and markets in decline.  It gives some great points about both companies that will be successful in the future and some that seem to be headed for danger.  The second article is a bit longer and tries to explain why Open Source Advocates may not always understand corporate America as well as we do here at linuxinstall.net.  The article makes several good points but seems to be trying to inflame people in Open Source.  It's a good read and makes you really think about what you are reading across the web.
