Open Source can generate good money

The most spectacular thing I liked is that open source application making good money.
$55 Million.
In Mitchell's words
"Mitchell Baker: Yep it's I think unprecedented for an open source project like us."

Hope this encourages numerous other good open source applications like open office, KDE, GIMP etc who are doing good work silently. I just wish that they also become self sufficient and profitable and not depend on community donations.

Firefox has shown us that Open Source is a viable way to go.
