A more important question is, can open source generate real ROI elsewhere? Yes. Oregon State University (OSU), for example, has websites that visitors need to search, so the school bought a Google appliance for about $125,000 per year. Two years later, OSU's IT department, aided by the Open Source Lab, replaced the appliance with an open-source search product called Nutch (license cost: $0). Nutch is not as easy to use as the Google software, so additional administration costs run to about $10,000 yearly.
Google不是一家网络搜索公司吗？它怎么也生产appliance？况且后面已经到了the Google software。这到底是一种硬件还是软件？

\"What is a Google Search Appliance?\", you ask.
It\'s a way for corporations and institutions to run their very own copy of the Google Search engine, even inside their firewall. While there are a bunch of search engines that can index and search a few hundred thousand documents, the Google high-end version can index millions of documents and respond to many simultaneous queries. Now that\'s power!
But Google isn\'t just selling software: the Search Appliance comes pre-installed on a special version of Linux in its own hardware: the low-end version is a 1u rackmountable box, while the high end is a full server rack with at least search engine servers, as well as power supplies, load balancing and failover features, like a mini Google server farm.
