Quite a long and comprehensive warm fuzzy overview, punchline says:

    Barring a dramatic change in attitude, product and price from
    the world's largest software company, open source is plainly
    the way developing nations should move.

    They literally can't afford to do otherwise.

Cheers; Leon
