Nearly everybody knows something about Open Source software. By now, you've probably heard of Linux. Maybe you even have a stuffed penguin sitting on your desk from a trade-show somewhere. But have you heard of the Apache web server? Would it surprise you that over 60% of all web servers on the Internet use Apache? Have you heard of the BSD operating system? Did you know that Microsoft and Apple use part of BSD in their own operating systems?

The Internet runs on Open Source software for good reasons: availability, low or very competive costs, high reliability, and the availability of source codes means you'll never be stuck or locked into a specific product.

Objective Consulting has been working with Open Source software for 10 years. We can work with you to:

• Identify the packages that will fit best with your requirements.
• Provide support for many packages
• Help make sure the product suits your need as your project grows.
• Help you determine how best to upgrade -- without having to pay yearly licensing fees.
• Leverage the availablity of the source code to tailor the product so it does exactly what you need it to do.

Penguins can wear more than tuxedos -- they look good in business suits, too.
