The corporate world is run by people that know nothing about technology; that's the real reason things take so long to improve there. FYI, small businesses ARE moving away from MS at a much faster rate than most people know about. Their advantage is that they can, and people usually running these are most tech informed and make decisions based on 'technology' and not 'favors', 'politics' and so forth. Bigger companies are run by ass-kissers who look for the cheapest solutions to impress the big boss (someone who knows even less tech wise) on the books. Companies that don't rely on MS have way less wasted tech related costs and that's a fact. The only thing MS is good for is making companies like mine profitable when we provide support for other companies that use their stuff. We're there regularly simply because nothing ever works right. And we charge by the hour, so yes, MS is a good thing in that sense, and I hope it always stays are shitty.
