In relation to our previous discussion about the use of FOSS[1] in Israel, why not approach it from the basic assumption that IT managers are risk averters. They would prefer to buy bad but known products than other, less know (or less understood) products even if those promise better quality.
They would tend to buy from big names that are perceived as stable than small companies. They would prefer to buy from international companies than from local entities. Are these sentences correct ?
