In the News "Windows' enterprise adoption declined in 2007, with the gains going to Linux and Mac OS. Vista is a bust. Forrester published the data on Thursday, but only released it publicly today. Forrester surveyed a whopping 50,000 users at 2,300-plus large to very large enterprises throughout 2007. Windows' enterprise adoption declined 3.7 percent, going from 98.6 percent in January to 94.9 percent in December. Mac OS gained 3 percent, going from 1.2 percent to 4.2 percent in the same time frame. Linux gained 0.5 percent in 2007." A classic case of 'do with it as you please'.

In New Zealand it is perfectly legal to do so; but in alot of cases one doesn't have much choice given the two carriers have completely different systems.

I've read about it in history books ;)
Most countries seems to have dropped that sort of thing a long time ago.
