 How about speaking to our colleges & universities? LCC, for example, 
is up to their eyeballs in microsoft.
Productivity suffers, taxpayers (blindly) pay recurring license fees, 
and students suffer as microsoft's rapine
continues to crash, cost, and academic programs are cut to insure buggy, 
megalithic, obnoxious, and irritating programs and systems are kept in 
place.

Yesterday in the LCC Library, the whole system crashed, it took over 5 
minutes to sign me in to the Novell server, and I couldn't print 
materials for class that morning.

Stability & cost controls should be priority, not contracts and 
management jobs.
