85 percent of companies using open source
Eighty-five percent of companies are already using open-source software, with most of the remaining 15 percent expecting to do so within the next year, according to analysts at Gartner.

Gartner conducted its survey of 274 end-user organizations across the Asia/Pacific, Europe and North American markets in May and June, and announced the results on Monday.

This is quite normal till a certain point.
Because we still need the paid software like Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator, maybe Corel Draw ?
I know companies are using software like Linux recently and combine it with GIMP, Filezilla and so on, but some time you just cannot do it all with open source or free software.
