[wellylug] British Government may dump Microsoft

[Klenner, Colin]

' The UK government's confusing relationship with Microsoft seems to be
taking a turn of the worse. In recent weeks we've seen the Ministry of
Defence and the National Health Service strike deals which will allegedly
save them tens of millions of pounds. Now, however, according to a story in
today's Times, the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) is threatening to
dump Microsoft, citing increased licence fees that would cost the UK £60
million a year, representing an increase of 50-200 per cent.'
