"but because of second order effects. "
Which is why Bill Gates personally intervened, when Munich switched to Linux a couple of years ago.
- ho_schi 3y agoMunich itself is weird case. There some smaller municipalities which have done better with Linux, lower-saxony and the police and the recent switch to Matrix of the Army. Regarding Munich: Three competing IT-Departments! Repeat, three. An own special distribution. They didn’t migrated all applications (either do it or not) and a lot of stuff was always done on Windows. Finally Microsoft moved a headquarter to Munich and solved it with “tax money”. Rumors say that the reverse migration to Microsoft itself was also “bumpy”. Let me guess, three IT-Departments? The former major of Munich also gave an interesting interview about the “experience”.
