MSFT - It's not just about .gov systems. You have utility companies involved. It's easy to blame mainframes and COBOL but the fact is that MSFT is the front end and edgeware for almost all these systems and "integration" and O/S substitutions have been happening since the 80s. There may never be a solution without turning off the power and junking entire systems and turning on an entire new system with new software. In the latter case, do you still go with MSFT? It's their turn to answer the question instead of IBM.
