Re: Killing the OS is definitely a "change in strategy."
"you can't get fired for buying Microsoft"
That is definitely it in corp IT. Buying Microsoft is a non-decision, just continue the status quo. I think this is changing though as end users are more tech savvy and want to use the good stuff. If you went to any company and had a vote on what they would rather use, Apple/Google or Microsoft, Apple/Google would win in a landslide. It wouldn't be close. Any younger company generally already uses Apple/Google. IT is clinging to things like "yeah, we know no one wants it, but... we need MSFT because it is secure". Really? Is that what MSFT has been known for?
