The title reads:

	"An open operating system does not just have advantages" 
(literally: an open operating system has not only advanteges)

The text:
	"An open operating system can occassionally mutate.  With Windows
	2000, however, all of the services and (services|daemons)* come from
	one source (literally hand).  That saves time and therefore money,
	really.  More info under ....(bla.mircrosleaze.com)"

The question as to whether "wirklich" is an adverb or an adjective is a
matter of interpretation.  There is no -ly suffix marker in German to make
the distinction definitive in such cases, but if one "really saves money"
or "saves _real_ (i.e. a lot) money" with M$ is kind of a mute point
anyway.

*Note: "Services" is "new-German" (trendy suit talk) and is much the same
as "Dienste".
