The Microsoft resistance

One sensible way to save the government money would be to move as much of the government's non-desktop systems over to Linux and other free software products. (It looks like www.whitehouse.gov is already running Linux; good for them.) You'd end up with a more secure system for every server that switched away from Microsoft's "solution" -- and though you might need more hardware if you were switching from more powerful Sun boxes, hardware is cheap and getting cheaper. Windows is the only part of the computer likely to go up in price any time soon.
