That would make for an interesting whitepaper by someone. A country by country or regional calculation of the costs of implementing open source. As an open source fan but also someone who has been burned by the hidden costs of implementing it in certain emerging market regions (extensive training, time, lack of people to fix it when it goes wrong, incompatibilities etc etc vs Windows environment with a wider base of support and usage), I would find this very interesting.
