| schestowitz | "years ago there were some cost-benefit analyses comparing the base cost | Jul 18 20:49 |
| schestowitz | of M$ malware to the migration cost to GNU/Linux. Even if the false | Jul 18 20:49 |
| schestowitz | premise of popularity equaling vulnerability were true, the migration | Jul 18 20:49 |
| schestowitz | would pay for itself many times over even if the malware-free period | Jul 18 20:49 |
| schestowitz | lasted a couple of years. Now with the damage from M$ malware running | Jul 18 20:49 |
| schestowitz | up into hundreds of billions per year, the return on investment would be | Jul 18 20:49 |
| schestowitz | greater. In short it is neither economics nor security holding back | Jul 18 20:50 |
| schestowitz | desktop migration to FOSS. As for usability, KDE surpassed M$ in | Jul 18 20:50 |
| schestowitz | usability 20 years ago. So that is not a factor holding back the | Jul 18 20:50 |
