“If you lay more emphasis on the monetary side, the pure Microsoft alternative would have won, or if you lay the emphasis on the strategic side, the open source alternative was better.” - Again a great article about Munich's switch to GNU/Linux, aka LiMux. You can't repeat this success story often enough. http://www.linuxvoice.com/the-big-switch/
How Munich switched 15,000 PCs from Windows to Linux
Munich city council has migrated 15,000 workers from Windows to Linux. It's a great success story for Free Software, and it upset Microsoft enormously. We visited the city and talked to Peter Hofmann, the man behind the migration - so read on for all the juicy details about what went right, what went wrong, and what made Steve Ballmer sweat...

@schestowitz wow, that article is crap "[The GNU] project eventually adopted the Linux kernel," <- totally false. It's still HURD.

I just don't get it why anyone would want to run MONO apps on !gnu !linux. Why not simply use Microsoft Windows .NET which it emulates?Marco Peter likes this.
