| "Where open source fits is in the areas of customization, as it 
| is totally customer-centric," Simpson said. "Open source has
| worked powerfully for us because it is a community, it's so
| user centric."

Open source body parts

| The term "open source" usually refers to software. It's what happens
| when someone develops a piece of software and posts the code on the
| Web. Others can use it, make it better or change it to suit their 
| needs. Everybody benefits and it's free. But now the concept is
| moving beyond software and into hardware, which could have a big
| impact on injured veterans returning from the war in Iraq.
| Marketplace's Hillary Wicai says one veteran is counting on it.
