[Bug 1] Re: Microsoft has a majority market share

[Andreas Troschka]

It seems this bug has at least an autoestinguence gene. ;-)
So, just to announce what's going on *in the real world* (not in that fantasy world of the american marketing research institutions one!): 
1. recently the british Ministry for education has disposed the cancellation of every M$ license and the substitution of o.s.' and software applications with Open Source Linux stuff in british school's PCs; 
2. the italian Parliament (during the last weeks) has deliberated to "get technological and economical independence" terminating any license contract with M$ for 3500 notebooks, desktops, palmtops of its institution, at first, saving not less then 9MEuros/year. All named computers will be provided with Open Source software and Linux o.s.. This new politic tactic will be spread to all over the italian institutions ensuring proportional savings (we are speaking about hundreds of thousand, if not millions, of PC units!).

There are news about this kind of actions every day from all over the
world. It should be interesting to concentrate numbers related to this
item on a single (multimirrored) Internet site.
