It makes Swedish startups stronger (and any other startups) because you don't have to put as much money into software licensing.

When you have more time than money, it makes sense. When your company gets big enough and you have more money than time, more proprietary/commercial software becomes an option.

I find it interesting however that even the more mature companies I interviewed also prefered using open source software. Like one of the CTO's who's company have 30+ employees.
