Battle heats up Munich software deal

"MUNICH - In a battle heating up over a software deal for the city 
administration of Munich, US giant Microsoft has lowered its price offer by 
15 per cent in order to prevent the city switching to Linux, Financial Times 
Deutschland (FTD) reported Wednesday. 

FTD cited a city council spokeswoman as saying that the council was now 
leaning to choose Microsoft over Linux. The council is to make a decision May 
28."
