Open Source in the OSI sense of the term was created as a reaction to the Free Software movement so I'm guessing probably not. It's more likely that we'd have the situation we had with UNIX; incompatible forks tied to incrutable hardware drivers that no one can fix with a zillion different combinations so that when you sat down at a terminal you had no idea what to do -thanks to people being able to take the BSD/MIT software and create their own contrarian forks. GNU wasn't innovative because it was free, or even because it's source was free. It was innovative because it forced people to play nice. The UNIX Wars demonstrated how well people play with others when left to their own desires (not at all).
