Why would a government want to use something else? That'd be stupid.

Government computers need to "just work"... you aren't going to train government officals to use linux... and you aren't even going to be able to train them how to modify their files so they'll be readable elsewhere.

It only makes sense for governments to use windows.

Furthermore it'd be stupidly expensive to transition over all the stuff to Linux/Mac OS anwyay.
