Or as long as their techs don't only know Microsoft, and always tell the suits that's what they need to get.

Just so I make sure we're talkign about the same issue...which is it now. The suits don't know what they're doing? Or is it the techies don't know what they're doing? It looks like you're now saying the suits make the right choice assuming the techies make the right suggestions. Therefore, it's not the suits, but the techies that are the problem. Which BTW is NOT what we were discussing. But I'll be happy to claim victory that the suits do know what they are doing and then move to a discussion on techies. I just want to make sure we are discussing the same thing. So we don't start mixing arguments.

Both. The suits don't know better to challenge tecchies with an allegiance. This happens a lot with Microsoft, and as you saw, also with Linux.
