This piques my interest. Does anyone know if the National
Health Service in the UK has committed to expanding MS
platforms?
This piece in The Guardian reports the search for a new œ200,000 pa
IT-pro to straighten out the NHS, more moola than anyone else
there currently makes:

A previous story told how Gates was to go schmooze them last
December to sign up for new licensing terms:

Did they, or are they planning to, sign major contracts with MS?
It would be a shame, overly costly, and a missed opportunity for
OS and better records security.
