Munich went full Windows again after a new mayor got elected who went straight to criticizing LiMux (Munich's Linux distro) and pushed to adopt Windows within his first weeks. A few months after the decision had been made, Microsoft relocated their German headquarters from Hamburg to Munich.
Projected costs for the switch back: 86.5 million Euro within the first six years.
A study by the city revealed that LiMux saved the city 10 million Euro over its lifetime.
