Hi All:

An exploration about Munich's migration from Windows to Linux. The battle is still on and if the city of Munich is finally successful will this spell trouble for Microsoft?

Considering this move was started in 2002, when the Linux desktop was rugged to say the least, full of bugs and had a rather limited range of software, the Munich consul demonstrated more than courage.
