Open source sound bites

This one for sound bite sake.  Dan Frye from IBM on the economics of open source -

"It's a fundamental part of IBM's business. We're not into Linux and open source because it's cool. It's nice that it's cool, but it's good business. We're making billions."

As more and more companies jump onto this bandwagon, open source space is getting bubbly (or frothy !).  So much for "where's the business model" concern.
