USENIX Talk: Open Source Business Models in Context

I'm back from the USENIX Annual Technical Conference in Anaheim, CA, and have posted the slides to my invited talk, "Under the Hood: Open Source Business Models in Context" (PDF, 588KB). The material comes from an essay to be published by O'Reilly in the not too distant future. 

I'm trying something new with the presentation format here.  Historically I've wrestled with slides that were boring lists of bullets with the occasional animation, that evolved to a style while at Microsoft of incredible text density and layout work where PowerPoint had become a page layout tool for paper presentations rather than a presentation tool.  I'm trying to go "more visual" and simpler in the slides, and actually present the material while on stage.  Of course that means the slides aren't necessarily helpful after the fact because the examples and context are missing.  So I've added the "notes" sections directly to the slides and I'm hoping the deck now stands alone.  Comments would be most welcome.
