Now, this is rumor. But I trust the source.
Seems on a recent phone call the subject of Microsoft came up. And seems the top people at the aforementioned guvmint agency that I work for are rather UNHAPPY with the amount of $$$ that is flowing to Redmond. Very, very unhappy.
And the question is coming up "why *can't* we put Linux on everything" more and more often, apparently.....
Bwhaha. :)
And the "new" licencing doesn't seem to be inspiring a LOT of confidence.
(We're still using WordPerfect and Lotus, internally).
The reason the subject came up, RedHat 6.2 just got approved for server use.
And there's massive pressure from up high to get 7.1 through the gates... and especially for desktops. :)
