Problem:
It used to be said "No one was ever fired for buying IBM." In the 1990s that phrase changed to "No one was ever fired for buying Microsoft." The sysadmins for your new web project are recommending using Linux servers running Apache web server, both open source software packages. Your company has had some difficulty with new applications over the past year. Will you agree with the sysadmins or will you buy Microsoft? What negative can you see about buying Microsoft?
