Most important open-source apps of all time
eWeek lists the following as the most important open-source apps of all time. If you're using any of these, you're in good company, if not, go check it out. It will save you a ton of time and money. I've added my own comments where we've used it and recommend it personally. Didn't have time to add links to each entry but I'm sure if you typed 'open source' and the topic in Google, you're bound to find them. (or go to eWeek and read the descriptions)
Wait, there's more...here's what they missed! These are all highly recommended by me.
