The MA department of revenue is considering Linux as an alternative to upgrading its installed base of Windows 95 desktop machines.

…Akers is advocating a DOR switch to open source/Linux, and he speaks of the possibility with the fervor of an activist. Charged with the technical direction of DOR, he talks about ?altruistic decisions that have to be made? and the fiscal need to ?embrace the open source solution.?

This has gotta be driving some of my more liberal friends that are also [[M$]] haters a bit schizo [[:-)]]!!!

I hope that Romney is up to the challenge!
