If IS people hired by businesses and govt got fired for these
screwups, they might not use MS. I strongly doubt that any IS people
will be fired because of this. (What does the MVA care about customer
convenience?)
Using MS seems to be a job guarantee. Certainly, in the dynamics
of a corporation, what would it benefit the maverick who pushed for
linux? Likely it would cost him his job. This is a strong incentive to
keep using MS software.

I'm curious why none of the media outlets are mentioning that Macintosh, Unix
and linux PCs cannot be infected by this worm; or asked why the MVA has their
PCs connected to the Internet, or why they haven't installed the latest
security patches from Microsoft. Sheesh
