Now...I'm not sure if a $30 million cost would be considered a tax write-off, esp when it's the IRS, or will it just fall under their whoopsie daisy category on their annual budget (kinda like their failed Star Trek YouTube ad campaigns). While I understand write offs when it comes to a business for costs of doing business, there are FREE alternatives (like ubuntu) that the IRS could use. I'm not anti-Microsoft (in fact I'm deving an app for windows phone right now), but seems to me that whoever is managing the IRS' budget are idiots, and their decisions really need to be audited.
