Munich drops Linux, for Windows 10

[Ink]

According to Kirschner, Munich's IT problems are not so much down to the use of free software as they are the result of poor management and organizational structure, a view backed up by Accenture's study.

Indeed, the committee's recommendations also note that Munich should have a strategic goal of moving to applications that can run independently of the operating system that is being used, such as web applications, virtualised apps and remote desktop services.

Given this goal, there will no doubt be more questions about the cost of moving everyone over to Windows.

hahahaha so funny !

Basically they were convinced by all those FUD campaigns against Win10 and shifted to Linux (like good sheeps) , then they saw all the hassle generated by Linux (oh !!! why MS office doesn't work on Linux !!! ) then after they were surely given a demonstration of Win10 corporate deployment by MS staff , then they changed mind ; hilarious...
