Open source began because Xerox neglected to update their printer drivers. It's always been a blend of idealism and pragmatics.

  You are mixing open source and Free Software.

    Open Source is just a MBA friendly term for Free Software.

      Though can I just say that Free software is a much better term than Open Source (unless of course you only wish to say the source is publicly available).

        Neither term guarantees (via legal measure) that the source is available. For that you also need copyleft.
