John -  On the two occasions that I have seen this term used,  it can either
mean Free Software Business, i.e., one who sells computer-software-related
services into a free market, (shareware distributors, contract programmers,
1-900 support vendors, support contractors, etc. which sometimes excludes
shareware developers .  Crynwr Software and Cygnus Support companies are
just two companies that use this business model.  OTOH,  it can  mean
Functional System Block (FSB). Cell Function System Block is a trademark of
VLSI Technology.  This form of design reuse typically contains only digital
logic.  HTH.  :-)
