This is an issue that most of us would support, and it's likely to be a 
hot one.  MS and the US government will no doubt push hard to discourage 
countries like Brazil and Germany from using Linux and other o.s. 
software. 

I guess Bush's (Paul Wolfashit's)  lovely little decision yesterday not 
to let countries that opposed the invasion of Iraq bid on 
reconstructions contracts might help the o.s. cause along a bit in 
Geneva, eh?  Like anyone in their right mind would want their staff to 
join the foreign targets in Iraq anyway...
