"BOSTON - With more than $32 billion in sales last year, Microsoft Corp. 
doesn't usually worry about losing one customer. But this one may be

Secretary Eric Kriss instructed the state's chief technology officer to 
adopt a policy of "open standards, open source" for all future spending 
on information technology."
