Microsoft has released a summary of the study compiled by HP on the Linux migration in Munich. In an article, German magazine Focus Money Online had last week quoted figures from an unpublished study that Microsoft had commissioned from HP. The study concludes that at €60.6 million (approximately £51 million), the City of Munich's Linux migration was considerably more expensive than reported by its council last November. However, last week, Microsoft Germany had emphasized that the study was compiled for internal purposes.
Excellent Analysis by "The H" highlighting the shenanigans MS used to convince City of Freiburg to revert to Windows.
I wonder how the city decision makers feel now after exposing the smoke and mirrors MS used to accomplish the ruse.
Let it be a lesson to those who haven't figured out the FUD level companies are willing to stoop to protect their interest.
