I like the idea of Open Source software because it doesn’t cost $150.00 and free versions of Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. I consider using Open Source software at home, if I get a new computer or laptop. For sure I will save lot money; I think about two hundred dollars. I will suggest the idea of installing this software to businesses, big or small; they can save a lot of money. With the money save they can use it for other supplies for the business or build another building in another country or state. After, reading Open Source software in wikipedia there are some more programs that are for free. And examples are Open Source culture, Open Source government, Open Source journalism, and etc. Reading the article about President Obama’s administration is considering using Open Source for government computers is a really interesting subject. The title of the article got my mind to try why would he want this? Maybe, because U.S is in a huge debt it will be wise to save some several million of dollars. That’s what I think because how the economy is bad. Anyway, I was right after all because U.S is in debt, here is the amount wasted " $400billion dollars and up! “
