If you want to hear interesting things about the advantage of open
source developement - listen to
http://techcast.chariotsolutions.com/index.php?post_id=458384
(Sorry for referring to Red hat here - but the speech is not limited to red hat)
Who wants to fly over the slides instead of listening:

What I liked most is: He pointed out, that no company can finance a
real large amount of developers and in Open Source projects there are
also usually working only a few full-time on a project, but the gain
of the hundreds of contributors who file just a few or a single
additional bug or do a little additional testing or fixing, bring a
lot of gain.
