Story: Choosing an open source content management system

There is no 'best open source cms'. As in the commercial sphere, you need to look at who is using the cms and whether they have similar needs to your own. You also need to think about the kind of support you want (if any) and who will provide it.

In the case of Mambo it is a very nice cms but probably not suited to a magazine publisher with hundreds of thousands of articles to manager. Likewise, the CMS my company develops, MySource Matrix (www.squiz.co.uk) is not suited particularly suitable for smaller sites or personal homepages.

Why do so many (virtually all) software packages think that they are so important that they have to be started automatically every time the computer boots?
