And don't forget core network/systems related software that are open source that are universally used;

--Apache Web Server Runs something like 2/3 of all web servers
--Sendmail
--BIND DNS. Pretty much the defacto standard.



Then there are applications such as
--Drupal
--MySQL

Then popular programming and scripting languages
--PHP
--Perl
--Python
--Ruby
