  • I believe the question is missing somehow the main points… even if the switch cost the double or triple there are several strategic advantages that should take into account:

    • use Linux allow to growth the number of high specialized professional workers, investing on local resources;
    • invest in a local network of specialized companies, instead of financing the silicon valley with ours public money;
    • be less dependent by abroad technologies, get a major control of the system used;

    These are few that come to my mind…

    What would be really interesting to know is the percentage of the investment that stay in the region/country following a linux-based/opensource IT infrastructure for public bodies vs the current closed M$|OSX paradigm.
