E-Mexico favours Windows over Linux

While Linux is being embraced by a number of governments thanks to its
perceived flexibility, relative security and bargain basement price,
some open-source proponents are still finding it a hard sell when
pitted against the reputation and resources of major vendors.

'reputation and resource' == ability to bribe? ;-(

But in a way it's good GNU/Linux has been dropped for *these* reasons.
I mean it would be much worse when Mexican people had come to the
conclusion that GNU/Linux is unusable.
