Software renaissance

New perspectives are reshaping the way software is created and delivered. In the era of Open Source "revolution", people are starting to glimpse back at the past when software was being sold on CD-ROMs for $x a license. Often buggy and difficult to install, the program tried its best to do the job it was bought for. Although it was created to suit the needs of as many it was possible, every user would have wanted it done another way, whether it was rearranging some buttons or adding a new feature. On top of the fact that sometimes the consumer had to make changes to accommodate and work better with the program, there were the update and maintenance fees and different license schemes aimed to draw as many bucks as it could.
Nowadays, however, big changes are taking place. People are coming closer to developing their own applications, based on their own needs. Taking advantage of the Open Source idea, now you can easily assemble your personalized application. More reliable, being the result of the work of a community, an open source application has the flexibility to allow everyone to use it at its full best.
